Does a Thai utility green tariff lower my market based Scope 2?
It can. Thailand has introduced utility green tariffs that attach renewable electricity to your supply. If the attributes are retired for you, cover the same year and meet the GHG Protocol Scope 2 quality criteria, the matching kWh carry a renewable factor in your market based total. Check current terms with your utility.
What to confirm
- The kWh covered and the year.
- That certificates or attributes are retired in your name.
- Whether the tariff draws on new or existing plants, which some buyers ask about.
Location based
Stays at the Thai grid average whatever tariff you choose.
