Estimation of greenhouse gas mitigation potential from carbon intensity and energy data analysis from Thai industrial sector

Industrial sector is one of the highest energy consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emission in Thailand. There are around 6,000 designated factories which consume large amount of energy and emit vast GHG volume each year. In this study, we investigate and validate the energy consumption and efficie...

In this study, we investigate and validate the energy consumption and efficiency data from Thailand’s designated factory database and converted into GHG value.
