| Abstract | The Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) is a scheme part of the Kyoto Protocol and developed under the United Nations Framework Climate Change Conference. The Clean Development Mechanism is meant to fight global warming by fostering investment in projects reducing greenhouse gases emissions in developing countries. One of the conditions of the Clean Development Mechanism investments is that they should contribute to local sustainable development. For an assessment of the business environment of Clean Development Mechanism in Thailand, we conducted case studies of four entities in Thailand. We focus on their business models in order to analyze where they create value thanks to the Clean Development Mechanism. In addition, we present two biogas power plants projects developed under the Clean Development Mechanism scheme. Finally, we present driving forces and challenges of the Clean Development Mechanism industry in Thailand based on industry representatives. The Clean Development Mechanism has contributed to business model innovation and changes. Even though the potential for Clean Development Mechanism industry is large, a lot of competitors and a high risk can slow down its growth in the coming years |
