  1. SBL submission optionsLandfill sector: methane destruction + energy generation Karla Solís Team Lead Regional Collaboration Centre St. George’s Regional Workshop on CDM & NAMAs 1st September 2014

  2. Background • To facilitate submissions of proposed standardized baselines, the UNFCCC secretariat prepared specific templates to be submitted by DNAs interested in having SB for the waste sector

  3. Two options • DNAs may choose to apply one of two approaches for the PSB: • Simplified approach following the “Guidelines for the establishment of sector specific standardized baselines” • Encompassing approach following “ACM0001 Flaring or use of landfill gas” • Both options are only relevant for projects capturing landfill gas, and not to other types of waste management. These would require a different SB

  4. Simplified approach • The Simplified approach: • Follows the provisions in the “Guidelines for the establishment of sector specific standardized baselines” • Applicable only to projects flaring landfill gas – without thermal or electric utilisation • Requires only small effort to propose, as little additional information is required

  5. Simplified approach • Information required: • Current national / regional regulations regarding landfill operation, particularly regarding landfill gas • QA/QC measures to ensure the regulations information is substantiated

  6. ACM0001 approach • The encompassing approach: • Follows the applicability criteria of ACM0001 • Applicable for all types of landfills, also with thermal energy or electricity generation • Requires additional effort to propose, as additional information regarding the current waste disposal is required

  7. ACM0001 approach • Elements to be standardized • Additionality demonstration • Baseline identification • Baseline emission/removal estimation • Applicability of the proposed standardized baseline • For whole country or region • Additionality demonstration • The LFG to power up to 10 MW; • The LFG to heat for internal or external consumption; • The LFG is flared.

  8. ACM0001 approach • Baseline identification • Atmospheric release of the LFG • Electricity (grid/ off-grid) • Heat (natural gas with 100% efficiency) • Applicability • Alternative use of waste. • No SWDSs (solid waste disposal sites) generate electricity and/or heat • Baseline emission estimation • Fraction of LFG captured and destroyed in the baseline (if any)

  9. ACM0001 approach • Information required: • Current national / regional regulations regarding landfill operation, particularly regarding landfill gas and recycling • For the landfills currently operating: • Amount of waste disposed • whether landfill gas is captured, how much, what for • How much power/heat were generated • QA/QC measures for all of the above
