Project must support the sustainable development policies of Malaysia and bring direct benefits towards achieving sustainable development; 2. Project must involve participation of Annex 1 Party/Parties as CER buyer. In addition, they are encouraged to participate as equity or technology providers; 3. Project must provide technology transfer benefits and/or improvement of technology; including enhancement of local technology; 4. Project must fulfill all conditions underlined by the CDM Executive Board; and 5. Project proponent should justify the ability to implement the proposed CDM project activity * Where flaring is used in methane abatement project, the project developer is required to utilize at least 10 percent of biogas for energy utilization

5 Revision on National CDM Criteria Criterion 2 Implementation of CDM projects must involve participation of Annex I Party/Parties An Annex I Party is considered to participate in a project in any of the following cases: a) Participation of an Annex I party as buyer, provider of equity and technology; or b) Participation of an Annex I party as buyer and provider of equity; or c) Participation of an Annex I party as buyer and technology provider This criterion has revised to: Project implementation must involve participation of Annex-1 Party/Parties as CER Buyer. In addition, they are encouraged to participate as equity or technology providers. Revision on National CDM Criteria Criterion 3 Project must provide technology transfer benefits and/or improvement of technology This criterion has revised to: Project must provide technology transfer benefits and/or improvement of technology, including enhancement of local technology Additional requirement on 10% Utilisation of biogas for energy utilisation Where flaring is used in methane abatement project, the project developer is required to utilise at least 10% of biogas for energy utilisation

11 CER Issued Projects (as of June 2012) No. Type of Project No. of Project CERs Issued (tco2 eq.) 1. Biomass ( i.e. EFB) 9 1,084, Biogas ( i.e. POME, landfill ) , Fuel Switch 1 572, Hydropower 1 8, Energy Efficiency 1 775,138 TOTAL 27 2,940,464 CDM Application (Energy Project) 77 energy projects with estimated potential emission reduction amounting 5,286,332 tco 2-eq has been successfully registered with CDM EB. 27 CDM projects were issued CER, amounting to 2,940,464 tco amounting to USD million (RM million).

12 Trend and Analysis of CDM Projects 1. Malaysia CDM project associated with RE (70%), EE (7%), Landfill (8%) and others (15%) 2. More on small scale of the CDM projects 3. More projects on Methane Avoidance, Methane Recovery, Off-grid electricity generation, Landfill and little on Energy Efficiency 4. CERs value and prices varies depends on project agreement 5. Issues: - Uncertainty of Second CP of Kyoto Protocol - Fluctuation of CER price - Buyer of CER Conclusion Current CDM potential in Malaysia associated with energy biomass, biogas, hydro and waste management landfill gas, MSW, Composting Future potential transport sector, biofuel, oil and gas, various industrial sectors and agriculture sector CDM : tool to turn economically unattractive projects into attractive investments Opportunities to develop new markets for innovative, environmental friendly technologies
