1. Role of Accreditation in Green Certification & Energy Auditing- T Wickremasinghe, Director/CEO, SLAB

2. Different Eco Management Systems- ISO 14001 EMS certification- ISO 50001 EnMs certification- Eco labeling (product)- GHG validation/verification- Carbon Footprint (product)- Green certification

3. United Nations Climate Change Strategies • UNFCCC • Adopted in1992, Came into effect on March 21, 1994. 192 state parties • Spirit of the Convention: States parties to undertake common but differentiated responsibilities • “cost effective” and “lowest cost” to control climate change and promote sustainable economic development

4. United Nations Climate Change Strategies • Kyoto Protocol • Adopted in 1997, Came into effect on Feb. 16, 2005. 191 state parties • Objective: • Global atmospheric CO2 concentration to be stabilized at 550ppm by 2100. • 2008-2012 emission of Annex 1 countries to be returned to less than 5.2% of the emissions in 1990

5. GHG emission status – 2008/2009

6. United Nations Climate Change Strategies The Mechanisms (Flexible) under the Kyoto Protocol • Clean Development Mechanism (CDM): allows a country with an emission-reduction or emission-limitation commitment under the Kyoto Protocol (Annex B Party) to implement an emission-reduction project in developing countries. • Joint Implementation (JI): a country with an emission reduction or limitation commitment under the Kyoto Protocol (Annex B party) to earn emission reduction units (ERUs) from an emission-reduction or emission removal project in Annex B Party. • Emissions Trading (ETS): Parties with commitments under the Kyoto Protocol (Annex B Parties) have accepted targets for limiting or reducing emissions

7. Energy Management System CertificationISO 50001 : 2011; Energy management systems – Requirements with guidance- Develop a policy for efficient use of energy- Fix targets and objectives for energy reduction- Use data for decision making on energy- Measure results & review effectiveness- Continual improvement

8. Green CertificationCertification scheme aimed at increasing environmental value of renewable energy generated. Sources of renewable energy : - Wind (onshore and offshore) - Solar (photovoltaic & thermal)- Wave and tidal (onshore and offshore) - Geothermal- Hydro (small and large)- Biomass (bio fuels)

9. Green certificate Vs. CO2-e reduction certificateGreen certificate – Represents the environmental value of renewable energy. Can be traded separately from the energy produced. Traded mostly in EU countries & US statesCO2-e reduction certificate – Relates to reduction of emission from greenhouse gases; CH4, N2O, HFCs, PFCs, SF6 & CFCs. Can be exchanged worldwide

12. Industries that are significant in managing GHG: • Organizational level : • Power generation and distribution, petroleum refinery, chemical engineering, fabricated metal products manufacturing, non-metallic material product manufacturing, agricultural and animal husbandry, fishing, forestry, water treatment, waste treatment and disposal • Project level: • Energy generation (renewable & nonrenewable), chemical manufacturing, transport, construction, metal production, fugitive emissions, solvents, waste handling and disposal, agriculture, afforestation and reforestation
