Promotion of Corporate GHG Accounting and Reporting in Cambodia
On 17 January 2025, OECC hosted a training workshop in Phnom Penh, Cambodia to promote corporate greenhouse gas (GHG) accounting and reporting. This workshop was held as part of the PaSTI-JAIF project under the Japan-ASEAN Integration Fund (JAIF), aiming to enhance transparency of GHG emissions in the ASEAN region.
The promotion of transparency regarding climate change in Cambodia responds to the needs of the government facing a lack of activity data for industrial wastewater. With the cooperation of a major Cambodian beverage factory, OECC carried out a model project to calculate and report GHG emissions, including data on industrial wastewater.
In the future, OECC plans to follow up on how to present the calculated GHG emission data to the public from the perspective of improving corporate value and attracting investment. OECC will also continue to provide support to the government, including cooperation with various ministries and agencies, toward the establishment of a GHG accounting and reporting system.
