Setting targets toward Carbon Neutrality and Net Zero requires starting with an understanding of how much greenhouse gas your organization emits. This knowledge enables effective emission reduction planning. The critical question is: which assessment method is right for your organization? WHAUP introduces recognized carbon footprint assessment guidelines in Thailand to help your organization make the right decision.

Carbon Footprint Assessment Standards in Thailand

In Thailand, carbon footprint assessments are governed by the Thailand Greenhouse Gas Management Organization (Public Organization), or TGO. Assessments are categorized into two primary frameworks:

1. Carbon Footprint for Organization (CFO): Organizational-Level GHG Calculation

CFO measures total greenhouse gas emissions generated by all activities within an organization, including energy consumption, transportation, and industrial processes. The final result provides a comprehensive, big-picture overview of the entire organization's carbon footprint.

Ideal for Organizations Wanting To:

• Gain a complete overview of corporate emissions.
• Establish corporate-level environmental and sustainability targets.
• Utilize data for compliance reporting under various sustainability frameworks.

2. Carbon Footprint for Product (CFP): Product-Level GHG Calculation

CFP measures the greenhouse gas emissions associated with a single product unit to evaluate the environmental impact of specific goods or services throughout their lifecycle.

CFP Data Can Be Used To:

• Analyze and optimize raw material selection.
• Improve manufacturing processes to reduce carbon emissions.
• Enhance core product offerings to unlock green commercial opportunities.
• Qualify for eco-labels and carbon certifications.

Ideal for multi-product companies wanting to start with key product lines.

Summary: Should You Choose CFO or CFP?

• Choose CFO: If your organization wants a complete corporate overview and intends to establish high-level sustainability targets.
• Choose CFP: If your company wants to focus on specific products or core offerings to lower environmental impact and boost market competitiveness.

CFO and CFP can also be conducted simultaneously for comprehensive organizational and product insights. While carbon accounting remains voluntary in Thailand today, future regulatory trends indicate an inevitable transition. Preparing now ensures a stable corporate transition.
