Abstract

As a world has interconnected to the human activities globally, the energy demand is increasing rapidly. Such activities have also released tremendous amount of GHG emissions, especially CO2 emissions. Nonetheless, Thailand is classified as a Non-Annex-I country without commitments on limitation of CO2 emissions. However, Thailand has started to respond to such commitments. The objective of this study is to analyze a policy option to a policy maker in climate change issue by using the AIM/Enduse model. The AIM/Enduse model is an optimization linear programing approach. There are two scenarios created in this study. The current policy options have been applied in the BAU scenario via four energy demand sectors and energy supply sector. Efficient and advanced technologies have been introduced into the energy system in the PEAK CO2 scenario. Such a scenario is expected to meet PEAK CO2 emissions by 2035.
