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 total GHG reduction is the sum of annual GHG Project Activity reductions PAt for the time horizon of the project
- The time period unit is a year (t)
- The project activity index is (z)
- The primary effect index is (p)
- The secondary effect index is (s)
Project Activity Reduction (PAR)
Primary Effects
Primary Effects is the delta (absolute reduction from baseline emissions) induced by the project activity emissions (PAE)
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
