CDM (Clean Development Mechanism) Project

The obligation to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions was given to developed countries through the UNFCCC (United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change) in 1992 and the Kyoto Protocol in 1997. According to CDM, the greenhouse gas emission reduction amount can be acknowledged as reduction obligation performance through eco-friendly business (project) within the non-obligated countries.
The DL Group helps fulfill the greenhouse gas emission reduction obligation through the CDM projects in Chile and Pakistan.

UNFCCC
Kyoto Protocol
  • Joint Implementation

  • Clean Development
    Mechanism (CDM)

  • Emission Trading System

  • Acknowledgment of greenhouse gas emission reduction performance between greenhouse gas emission reduction countries

  • Greenhouse gas emission reduction performance between mandatory and non-mandatory greenhouse gas emission reduction countries

  • Permission of trading depending on reduction performance after the trading right is allocated to countries with reduction obligations

Chile’s PMGD Solar Photovoltaic Project

DL E&C is developing a 105MW solar PV project as part of the CDM project, so 140,000 tons’ greenhouse gas emission reduction is expected annually.

Management of Greenhouse Gas Emissions

DL E&C built the greenhouse gas inventory system in 2009 to cope with climate change, one of the most serious environmental problems worldwide; it has been making efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions generated from our construction sites and DL E&C’s head office building. We have ensured data reliability through third-party voluntary verification, and we have been continuously improving the system.

Energy Usage Management

DL E&C predicts GHG emissions by reviewing the expected energy consumption and sets reduction targets by classifying energy facilities according to the level of impact. In order to achieve the targets, we establish quantitative action plans and implement performance management to reduce energy consumption and GHG emissions.
