About GHG - How to Secure a Credit
|
The following are major steps:
- Analyze the Energy or Power Project for where there may be claimed reductions in GHG Emissions:
- ie. Combined Cycle Systems
- Renewable Energy
- Energy Efficiency Improvements
- Flyash Separation
- Methane Capture & Utilization
- Pipeline Transport of Coal
- Sulfur Hexafluoride Recovery
- Capture & Use of LNG Boil - Off etc.
- Calculate the Baseline (w/o measures) and the Project (w measures) cases to determine a difference in the amount of C02 or CH4 being emitted
- Prepare the Proposal Application for the Approving Body covering:
- the Parties to the Project
- Project background and details
- GHG emission calculations (with & without measures)
- Other considerations (non GHG impacts and efforts to reduce GHG emissions on other projects)
- Monitoring, Verification and Annual Reports of the Certification plus the Apportionment Agreement
and proving the project's:
- Transparency
- Additionality
- Sustainabiity
- Answer the questions, make additions and modifications to the original submittal through a series of iterations to satisfy all the criteria and requirements of the Approving Body and attain the Approval & Accreditation
- Provide Monitoring, Tracking and Recording by an independent third party
- Provide Verification and Certification by an independent fourth party
- Provide an Apportionment Agreement
- Provide All Risk Floater Insurance
- Take the package to a Broker and satisfy all his criteria
- Make the Transaction (sale, trade or hold)
