Description

This protocol is applicable to the quantification of reductions in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions resulting from the implementation of facilities that convert the potential energy of river flow into low retention, water-powered electricity generation as run-of-river or on an existing reservoir. Henceforth, these facilities will be referred to as ‘run-of-river hydro’ and as ‘existing reservoir hydro’ electricity generation projects, respectively. The protocol quantifies the emission reductions based on the generation of an equivalent quantity of electricity from fossil fuel based sources, either at grid-connected or off-grid facilities. Withdrawn as of March 31, 2020.

Quantification protocol for waste heat recovery projects. Version 1

Description

This quantification protocol is applicable to the quantification of direct and indirect reductions of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions resulting from the implementation of waste heat recovery projects. The protocol quantifies the emission reductions from the avoidance of fossil fuel consumption resulting from the capture and utilization of heat that is currently being wasted. The waste heat may be transferred into the project site where it is utilized, or may be recovered and used within the project site. Project configurations where the waste heat is supplemented are also included.
