After financial analysis of Moduc Geothermal Power Project with and without CDM, the project is shown to be financially feasible if the revenues from the sale of CERs at CER price of 5 US$/ton CO2 is included, if the CER price is equal to or less than 4 US$/ton CO2, the project would not be financially viable. Similarly, the project would not be viable if the buyback rate is less than 4.5 cent/kWh.

Vietnam has a large potential of geothermal power, Thus, the potential of geothermal dedicated for power generation is rather high. However, geothermal technology in Vietnam now is under development stage in which its commercialization process is still very limited. The study assesses of a geothermal power project in Vietnam for implementation under Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) of the Kyoto Protocol of the United Nations Framework Convention for. Climate Change. This study will discuss the additionality assessment, determine of Baseline, emission and CERs, financial Analysis of the geothermal project with and without CDM and Sensitivities Analyses for 21.4 MW geothermal power plant at Mo Due district, Quang Ngai province in Vietnam under clean development mechanism. Additionality assessment of the project is mainly based on investment analysis using FIRR, NPV and B/C ratio and sensitivity analysis, barriers analysis and analysis of prevalence of activities similar to the proposed CDM project.
