Climate change is regarded as the major environmental crisis and affects the world, all countries, and people’s way of life. The power industry is an industry that exploits a lot of resources including the quantity, raw materials, chemicals, fuels, and water, which are the main production factors in the generation of electricity. The pollutions from production, delivery, release of waste, and residue removal multiply the global warming in recent years.

Gulf TS3 Company Limited is a part of the power generation industry that becomes aware of the importance of these impacts. The project that TU-RAC provided, therefore, generated the environmental data for Carbon Footprint of Product (CFP) which is based on Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). It reviews raw materials, production, delivery, usage, and elimination of waste by assessing carbon dioxide equivalents (CO2e). The evaluation results are expressed in terms of carbon dioxide which not only elevating the country’s electric power generation standards, but also enabling the Thai electric power industry to prepare for the greenhouse gas emissions report for the government.

Operating Result Conclusion:
The assessment of Carbon Footprint of Product (CFP) by Gulf TS3 Company Limited totally considers 2 products which are electricity, and steam. The scope of the assessment is B2B as it begins to review raw materials and production process without product distribution, utilization, and waste management. TU-RAC uses “Efficiency Method” in accordance with the regulations of the electrical and steaming products declared by Thailand Greenhouse Gas Management Organization (PCL). Most of the impact stems from the natural gas combustion is the main fuel of the production process.
