As of January 1, 2020, the Technology Innovation and Emissions Reduction automatically applies to facilities that emit 100,000 tonnes or more of carbon dioxide equivalent greenhouse gases. Oil and ... More ≫

Description

As of January 1, 2020, the Technology Innovation and Emissions Reduction automatically applies to facilities that emit 100,000 tonnes or more of carbon dioxide equivalent greenhouse gases. Oil and gas facilities under this threshold have the option to voluntarily become a regulated facility under TIER by becoming an aggregate facility. This fact sheet provides an overview of the benefits of being regulated, how to become a regulated facility, reduction requirements, and associated costs of being a regulated facility.

Amount of CO2-equivalent emissions from facilities emitting over 10kt, as required by Canada's Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program, by year and municipality or municipal district. CO2 equivalent is a ... More ≫

Description

Amount of CO2-equivalent emissions from facilities emitting over 10kt, as required by Canada's Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program, by year and municipality or municipal district. CO2 equivalent is a term for describing different green house gases (like methane, nitrous oxide, HFCs, etc.) in a common unit. The CO2 equivalent would signify the amount of CO2 required to have a equivalent greenhouse effect.

Description

This quantification protocol is written for the oil and gas industry where natural gas is used to provide pneumatic power for automated process control and operational devices. Devices that may be powered by natural gas include pressure controllers, temperature controllers, transducers, liquid level controllers, flow rate regulators and chemical pumps. The opportunity for generating carbon offsets arises from the direct and indirect reduction in greenhouse gases resulting from the conversion of instrument gas to instrument air in process control systems.
