Abstract

Since adoption of Bali Road Map in 2007, worldwide trend that developing countries should try to reduce GHGs emissions to countermeasure climate change is growing. Although Korea has yet to be designated as a country that should reduce greenhouse gas emissions, it is expected to be put under pressure in international negotiations over the Post-Kyoto Protocol for its significant contributions to increasing CO2 emissions. In addition, Korea declared its vision of “low-carbon green growth” in reflection of the rising interest in the green industry. Korean government now prepares the mid-long term GHGs emission reduction target and makes fundamental law of climate change. Industries also tries to reduce GHGs emission by declaration of GHGs emission reduction target which is voluntarily established as well as establish their own climate change policies. Some large corporation adopt internal emission trading system to reduce their GHGs emission efficiently. This study will analyze the effect of introduction of internal emission trading system in SK energy. To introduce internal emission trading system within corporation, many factors such as the scope of emission trading participants, GHGs emission target, allocation policy as well as internal consensus should be considered. It is necessary to analyze the result as well as effect of conducting internal emission trading system in Korea. However, the data is limited because the amount of GHGs emissions allocation and trading are strictly confidential in many companies. Although data of this study is limited in SK energy and many data is not available to open the public, the implication of the study will be meaningful.
