  1. Customization of Emissions Calculation Tools:CEMENT SECTOR IN INDIA Prosanto Pal The Energy & Resources Institute BAQ 04 – Agra, India 07 December 2004

  2. GHG Protocol Initiative • A Source-level Emission Quantification Tool • Jointly convened by the WBCSD (World Business Council for Sustainable Development) & the WRI (World Resources Institute) • Mission: to develop & promote internationally accepted GHG accounting & reporting standards through an open & inclusive multi-stakeholder process • Serves as the premier source of knowledge about corporate GHG accounting & reporting www.ghgprotocol.org Emissions Quantification Tools: India

  3. Emissions Quantification Tools • Building blocks of air quality management • Key to transition to market-based mechanisms • Simplifies measurement & reporting • Helps in preparation of plant & corporate GHG inventory data • Maintains uniformity in reporting procedures for GHG emissions • Initial project countries: • India – cement sector • Mexico – pulp & paper sector Emissions Quantification Tools: India

  4. Customization: India • Partners: • - USEPA • -MoEF/CPCB • - TERI • - WRI • Part of the USEPA-MoEF Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) & USG-GOI climate bilateral Emissions Quantification Tools: India

  5. Coverage • Customization of GHG Protocol for Indian cement industry • Primary focus on GHG, viz. CO2, emissions from a cement plant in a financial year • Secondary focus on criteria pollutants (SO2) • Road testing at a cement plant in Himachal Pradesh Emissions Quantification Tools: India

  6. Emission sources • All forms of stationary combustion sources: kilns, precalcinators, captive power plant (D.G. etc), driers etc. • Process related emissions: GHG emissions from process operations i.e. emission of CO2 due to calcination of raw materials • Emissions from mobile sources: company owned vehicles, locos, quarry equipment etc. • Indirect emissions (import and export of electricity) For accounting GHG emissions at plant level, all emissions are classified as Scope (1/2/3). Emissions Quantification Tools: India

  7. What is included in different Scopes? Emissions Quantification Tools: India

  8. Structure of the customized tool • Consists of simple Excel spreadsheets & a guidance document to fill the worksheets • The Excel tool has independent worksheets to calculate emissions from various sources • Some worksheets in the tool: • General plant information • Custom emission factor for calcination • Custom emission factor for fuel • Direct process emissions Emissions Quantification Tools: India

  9. Structure of the customized tool (contd.) • Direct emissions from stationary combustion (kiln, precalcinator, DG set etc) • Direct emissions from mobile • Indirect electricity import • Indirect clinker imports • Summary inventory sheet • Reference sheets (like unit conversion, default emission factors etc) Emissions Quantification Tools: India

  10. Emissions Quantification Tools: India

  11. Emissions Quantification Tools: India

  12. Key data requirement • Annual clinker production • Annual fuel consumption data – source wise • Annual electricity purchased • Average clinker composition (CaO/ MgO content), raw material composition, carbon content and CV of coal – determine EFs • Average dust emissions from kiln stack Emissions Quantification Tools: India

  13. Emissions Quantification Tools: India

  14. Emissions Quantification Tools: India

  15. Next steps • Peer review by Indian & international experts • Roadtesting in a cement plant • Outreach in cement sector • Anchoring within cement industry • New projects for power plants & iron & steel Emissions Quantification Tools: India
