A. Project description
A.1. Title of the JCM projectIntroduction of 3.4MW Rooftop Solar Power System to Air-conditioning Parts Factories
A.2. General description of project and applied technologies and/or measures
The project involves installation of rooftop solar power systems with the total generating
capacity of 3.4MW at air-conditioning parts factories in Rayong Province, Thailand. The projectis implemented by SNC Former Public Co., Ltd., (SNC) a Thai company utilizing thecrystalline silicon photovoltaic (PV) modules of Sharp Corporation of Japan (ND-AH315,
ND-RA260). Sharp's PV modules are well known for high durability, adhering to the company
standard which is more stringent than Japan Industrial Standard or International
Electrotechnical Commission standards.
The solar power systems are implemented to 6 factories owned by subsidiaries of SNC, or SNC
Pyongsan Evolution Company Limited (SPEC), Infinity Parts Co., Ltd., (IPC), Ultimate Parts
Company Limited (UMP) and SNC Creativity Anthology Company Limited (SCAN).
All the electricity produced by the project is supplied to 6 factories displacing electricity
generation by fossil-fuel based power plants, contributing to greenhouse gas emissions
reduction in Thailand.

A.6. Contribution from Japan
The proposed project was partially supported by the Ministry of the Environment, Japan(MOEJ) through the Financing Programme for JCM Model projects, which provided financial
support of less than half of the initial investment for the projects in order to acquire JCMcredits.
The technology of advanced and efficient solar power system is introduced in the proposed
project by the Japanese project participant. Further, implementation of the proposed project
promotes technology transfer of low carbon technologies in Thailand.
