Source of GHG emissions
Forestry is 2nd GHG emitter in the globe. LUCF is main GHG emitter in Cambodia.

Important of forestry to climate
“Climate change cannot be won without the world’s
forests….”
—Ban Ki-moon, 2008
“Forestry can make a very significant contribution to a
low-cost global mitigation…”
—IPCC, 2007
“Given the scale of emissions from deforestation, any
climate change deal that does not fully integrate
forestry will fail to meet the necessary targets.”
— Nicholas Stern, 20086

Woodfuel consumption in Cambodia
Woodfuel remain a vital energy for Cambodians, especially rural people. Sustainability
of woodfuel has not known yet (Top et al., 2006) while 50% of woodfuel they consumed
is harvested from natural forest (CCCO, 2006, 2003, & 2001). 8
Actions to reduce CO2
1992• UNFCCC was set up
1997• Kyoto protocol was adopted and CDM also
included
2007
• COP 13 Bali Road map strongly agree REDD proposal for post 2012 climate mechanism
• COP 15 Copenhagen (Dec,2009) , REDD expect to be adopted.

Problem statement
50 % of woodfuel
is harvested from
natural forest
If sustainable Fine, go!
Need to
Assess
sustainability
But, if
UNSUSTAINABLE
1. Woodfuel
shortage
2. Deforestation
3. GHG
emissions
Use WISDOM to
assess
10
Research Objectives
1. Assess woodfuel supply and demand
whether consumption of woodfuel cause
deforestation or not
2. Estimate CO2 emissions from non-
sustainable woodfuel consumption
3. Estimate carbon credits to avoid
deforestation
11
Methodology
1. Study area
2. Woodfuel Integrated Supply/Demand Overview
Mapping (WISDOM)
3. Estimation of CO2 emission from un-sustainable
woodfuel consumption

Socio-economic profile in PCA
• Above 54 % (are around 11,819 house-
holds) of total household in this area are
wood based activities
• People cut wood in dry season, March is
productive month of collection.
• There are 122 villages in 19 commune in
PCA.
18
Development of Demand module
• Seeds tool for participants estimate wood consumption
• Simple questions: most productive month, number of cycles of collection, carrying capacity of the transport mean & seasonality of wood collection.
• Draw zone of collection
19
Development of Supply module
• Forest inventory for Aboveground biomass
(AGB); AGB = VOB x WD x BEF
• Increment: y= 2.3Ln(AGB)- 7.79 (Top et al.,
2004)
• Woodfuel supply= Increment x forest area
20
Forest cover and plot location
21
Development of Integration module
• Balance = Supply-Demand
• Select high balance or highly
unsustainable as priority areas
Identifitying priority area
22
Result
1. Woodfuel consumption
2. Forest increment, woodfuel productivity
3. Balancing the supply and demand
4. Identifying priority area
5. Amount of CO2 emission from un-sustainable woodfuel
consumption
6. Carbon credits to avoid deforestation in PCA

Wood S/D, integration
• Per-HH average wood consumption FW=14T/yr; CH=17 T/yr; PS= 37 T/y. Generalized these values for PCA wood demand.
• Average increment of 3.21 T/ha/yr and wood supply
• 14 out of 19 communes have already consume wood on non-sustainable basis
• CO2 emission: 208,445 T (2009); 1,149,224 T of
CO2 (2010-2014)
33
Opportunity cost of carbon credit
• About 4,596,896 dollars should be paid from
2010-2014 to keep forest stand.
• More study needed especially on demand
increment.
• Policy maker or energy program developers
should address woodfuel imbalance before
promoting woodfuel as an alternative energy.
