Definition
Quantifying GHG Reductions is a procedure for compiling and reporting an aggregate GHG reduction from a GHG Project. The following is according to [1]
- The standard reporting unit is in tonnes of CO2 Equivalent, denoted as (t CO2eq)
- The GHG reduction is the sum of annual GHG Project Activity reductions PAt for the time horizon of the project
Project Activity Reduction
Annual Quantification of GHG Reduction
Where:
- are the Annual GHG reductions for the entire GHG project
- are the total annual baseline emissions for all the GHG project's primary effects
- Total annual GHG project emissions
Annual Baseline Emissions
Project Emissions
