Description

This quantification protocol is written for the oil and gas industry where CO2 is injected into an enhanced oil recovery scheme and emissions offset project. The opportunity for generating emission offsets arises from the direct and indirect reduction in greenhouse gases resulting from the capture, transportation and injection and ultimate sequestration of CO2.

Description

This quantification protocol is written for the oil and gas industry where methane that is normally vented is capture and either conserved or combusted to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The protocol provides a methodology to quantify the greenhouse gas emission reductions from capturing vented methane. Since methane has a much higher global warming potential than carbon dioxide this protocol has the potential to enable project developers to achieve significant reductions and generate emission offsets.

Description

This spreadsheet provides a summary of 2015-2017 data reported by facilities subject to the Specified Gas Emitters Regulation. The Regulation was passed in 2007 and expired December 31, 2017. Emissions were reported in units of tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalents. Each facility was required to reduce its annual emissions intensity by a prescribed percentage target relative to its facility-specific approved baseline emissions intensity.

Description

The Government of Alberta is proposing to replace the Carbon Competitiveness Incentive Regulation (CCIR) with a Technology Innovation and Emissions Reduction (TIER) system for Alberta’s large industrial emitters, with a target effective date of Jan. 1, 2020. This document is intended to assist discussion around the options for development, transition and implementation of the TIER system. It outlines principles to guide the development and implementation of the TIER system, principles to guide the engagement process, and the engagement approach and scope.
