Reducción de Emisiones de CO2

CO2 Emission Calculation
Project life = 40 years
 

Emission Gas

Per Year

 Project Life (40 yrs)

CO2

75,000 metric tons pear year

3,000,000 metric tons

Baseline Calculation:

The total amount of CO2 emissions reductions that the Project will produce is approximately 3 million metric tons of CO2 equivalent.

Main Assessment

This phase includes a qualitative and quantitative analysis of the project, conducted both in the office and during field visits, entailing:

Qualitative analysis:

  1. Suitability assessment - detailed analysis of project design in order to ascertain whether it meets certain carbon offset eligibility criteria (see below)

  2. Assessment of the scientific methodology of the project, focusing on data availability and data quality;

  3. Assessment of the project's management capability and infrastructure, to determine it's ability to accomplish the targets proposed;

    A positive outcome of these two assessments results in a Certificate of Project Design

Quantitative analysis:

  • Verification of projections of carbon flows derived from the project by quantifying carbon flows of with - without - (baseline) project scenarios.

  • These assessments result in a Schedule of Emission Reduction Units that indicates the emission reduction units that will be achieved by the project during the lifetime (provided it is implemented as described in the associated project design). Furthermore, it determined which proportion of the offsets must be retained in the buffer to cover for the risk and uncertainty.

Monitoring and Verification:

Carlos Casado, S.A. will select an organization offering project monitoring and long-term verification of GHG emissions reductions. Carlos Casado, S.A. will choose the best-suited organization for this work.

Information will be collected by the monitoring system and will be used to evaluate actual emissions reductions (impacts vs. projections). The monitoring system will be set up to collect data and to track verify that the projections are established by the actual measured and recorded emissions.
