Deliberations of Taiwan's low-carbon Assess Index

為了達到低碳社會，目前國內很多縣市正推動節能減碳。但因為缺少統一的評定指標，而無法判定是達到低碳城市。因此，本研究目的係提出低碳評核指標，作為評定是否符合低碳社會之參考。 藉利用低碳評核指標進行評估，除可了解評估對象之減碳努力程度外，也可作為政策調整之參考。目前國際間永續指標發展普遍採用「壓力－現狀－因應」（Pressure-State-Response, PSR）系統，作為設計依據，但因國內尚無明確減量目標及責任，故本研究僅考慮「壓力－現狀」兩項，以了解目前現況。本研究參考國外低碳城市發展案例，及國際國內相關低碳指標後，提出八大低碳評估面向：「再生能源」、「節約能源」、「綠色運輸」、「低碳建築」、「環境綠化」、「資源循環」、「低碳生活」及「低碳校園」，提出相對之低碳評核指標，作為計算各面向及整體表現。並針對政府減碳目標，定義年人均排碳量低於2.44公?噸CO2e/人年，即符合低「低碳」之定義。 除實質之環境效益外，低碳評核指標可讓民眾及非政府組織了解政府減碳政策，對政府施壓，以便早日達到低碳社會之目標。In order to achieve a low-carbon society, many domestic counties are to promote energy conservation and carbon reduction. Because of the lack of a unified assessment index, we can not compare which county is achieving a low-carbon society. So this research is to assess the proposed low-carbon index, as a reference for assessing whether a low-carbon society. Use index to assess low-carbon action, it can show us how far we away the low-carbon target. So we can adjust our policy. At present the development of international sustainability indexes commonly used "Pressure - Status - Response "(PSR) system as a basis. However, we do not have clear targets and responsibilities. So this research only considers the "Pressure - Status" in order to understand the current status. Refer to the foreign case of low-carbon city and related index. This research proposed eight low-carbon directions: Renewable Energy, Energy conservation, Green Transport, Low-carbon building, Green Environment, Resource recycling, Low-carbon life and Low-carbon Campus. It also propose the low-carbon assess index, for calculate the performance. According to the Government''s carbon reduction targets, this research proposed that lower than 2.44 mt CO2e /capita -year as a "low carbon". In addition to substance of environmental benefits, the low-carbon assessment index allows the public and non-governmental organizations to understand the Government''s reduction policy. It also can pressure on the Government to achieve a low carbon society as soon as possible
