4.4 Baseline emissions BE y , baseline emissions in year y (tCO 2 e), is estimated as follows: BE y = (MD Project,y – MD BL,y ) • GWP CH4 + EF LFG,y • CEF elec,BL,y + ET LFG,y • CEF ther,BL,y (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) (1) MD project,y The amount of methane that would have been destroyed/combusted during the year (tCH 4 ) in project scenario Figure A-1 shows how MD project,y is to be determined ex post by metering the actual quantity of methane captured and destroyed once the project activity is operational. CH4 Landfill LFGtotal,y (a) MDtotal,y LFGther,y LFGPL,y LFGelec,y LFGflare,y The lower of (a) or (b) should be chosen as MDproject,y Boiler Pipe Power Plant Flare MDther,y + MDPL,y + MDelec,y + MDflared,y = (b) The sum : monitored : calculated Here, MD total,y , MD flared,y , MD elec,y , MD PL,y and MD ther,y are calculated based on monitored flow of landfill gas at different points, i.e. LFG total,y , LFG flare,y , LFG elec,y , LFG PL,y and LFG ther,y , using the following formula: MD total,y = LFG total,y • W CH4,y • D CH4 MD elec,y = LFG elec,y • w CH4,y • D CH4 MD ther,y = LFG ther,y • w CH4,y • D CH4 MD PL,y = LFG PL,y • w CH4,y • D CH4 MD flared,y = (LFG flare,y • w CH4,y • D CH4 ) – (PE flare,y /GWP CH4 ) w CH4,y : Average methane fraction of the landfill gas as measured during the year (in m 3 CH 4 / m 3 LFG) D CH4 : Methane density (tCH 4 /m 3 CH 4 ) PE flare,y : Project emissions from flaring of residual gas stream in year y (tCO 2 e). Determined by following the procedure described in the “Tool to determine project emissions from flaring gases containing Methane” [EB28, Annex 13]. Figure A-1 Flow diagram of MD project,y calculation MD project,y should be chosen as the lower value of MD total,y or the sum of MD flared,y , MD elec,y , MD PL,y and MD ther,y . When the sum of MD flared,y , MD elec,y , MD PL,y and MD ther,y is lower, then the working hours of the energy plant(s) and the boiler(s) should be monitored and no emission reduction could be claimed for methane destruction in the energy plant or the boiler when they are not working. (2) MD BL,y The amount of methane that would have been destroyed/combusted during the year in the absence of the project (tCH 4 ) due to regulatory and/or contractual requirement (a) In the case where the MD BL,y is given/defined in the regulation and/or contract as a quantity that quantity will be used. 104
(b) In cases where regulatory or contractual requirements do not specify MD BL,y or no historic data exists for LFG captured and destroyed an “Adjustment Factor” (AF) shall be used and justified, taking into account the project context. MD BL,y = MD Project,y • AF Guidance on estimating AF: In cases where a specific system for collection and destruction of methane is mandated by regulatory or contractual requirements or is undertaken for other reasons, the ratio of the destruction efficiency of the baseline system to the destruction efficiency of the system used in the project activity shall be used. The following procedure should be followed: Step 1: Estimation of the destruction efficiency of the system a) In situations where the baseline specific system for collection and destruction of methane installed and operating prior to implementation of the project activity place and measurements of the amount of methane that is destroyed are available then the following equation will be used: ε BL = MD Hist / MG Hist ε BL MD Hist MG Hist : Destruction efficiency of the baseline system (fraction) : Amount of methane destroyed historically measured for the previous year before the start of project activity (tCH 4 ) : Amount of methane generated historically for the previous year before the start of project activity, estimated using the actual amount of waste disposed in the landfill as per the latest version of the “Tool to determine methane emissions avoided from dumping waste at a solid waste disposal site” (tCH 4 ) While estimating ex-ante methane emissions, that are generated in the landfill with latest version of the approved “Tool to determine methane emissions avoided from dumping waste at a solid waste disposal site” the following guidance should be taken into account: • In the tool, x will refer to the year since the landfill started receiving wastes [x runs from the first year of landfill operation (x=1) to the year for which emissions are calculated (x=y)]. • Sampling to determine the different waste types is not necessary. The waste composition can be obtained from previous studies. b) In cases, where the baseline system for collection and destruction of methane is not installed prior to project implementation and/or measurements of the amount of methane that is destroyed are not available then the destruction efficiency of the system mandated by regulatory or contractual requirements (εBL) should be assumed to be equal to the theoretical efficiency of the specific system for collection and destruction of methane that is defined in the regulation or contract. In other cases, a procedure for estimating the amount of landfill gas that would be captured in absence of the project activity shall be provided in the CDM-PDD validated by the DOE. This procedure shall be used to estimate the MD Hist in equation 3 above to estimate the baseline destruction efficiency. c) In cases where a specific percentage of the “generated” amount of methane to be collected and destroyed is specified in the contract or mandated by regulations, the efficiency of the baseline system (ε BL ) is equal to the defined specific percentage. 105
