CDM ACM0018: Electricity Generation from Biomass in Power-Only Plants

Last updated 10 months ago

Table of contents

Introduction to ACM0018

ACM0018 is dedicated to electricity generation from biomass in power-only plants, developed as a methodology within the framework of the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).

This methodology is specifically tailored to projects that focus on the generation of electricity through the utilization of biomass in power-only facilities. Whether it involves constructing new biomass power plants or retrofitting existing ones, ACM0018 places a significant emphasis on harnessing the potential of biomass resources while simultaneously supplying clean electricity to the grid. ACM0018's primary objective is to quantify and verify reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, thus reducing the carbon footprint associated with electricity generation. It highlights the essential need to shift away from carbon-intensive energy sources and make a decisive transition toward a more eco-friendly and sustainable energy landscape.

ACM0018 commits to the advancement of biomass-based power generation, utilizing a wide range of biomass feedstocks, including agricultural residues, forestry waste, and organic materials. This methodology introduces a standardized framework for assessing and verifying emissions reductions, thereby contributing to the global effort towards combating climate change. ACM0018 is equipped with a comprehensive suite of methodological tools and schemas, ensuring the precision and consistency of emissions calculations.

Need and Use for ACM0018

ACM0018 addresses the critical need for sustainable electricity generation from biomass sources in power-only plants, offering a versatile framework for a range of project activities. Project activities can encompass a variety of actions, such as power capacity expansion, energy efficiency improvements, fuel switching, and the combination of these elements to address specific energy and environmental objectives. ACM0018 provides a structured framework for the quantification and verification of emissions reductions to support sustainable energy practices.

This methodology facilitates Greenfield Power Project Activities by allowing the installation of new biomass (co-)fired power-only plants in locations without current power generation. This enables the establishment of clean energy infrastructure in areas seeking to kickstart sustainable electricity production. In regions with existing power-only plants utilizing fossil fuels and/or biomass, ACM0018 supports Power Capacity Expansion Project Activities through the installation of new biomass (co-)fired power-only plants. These new facilities can either replace or complement existing ones, significantly increasing power capacity while transitioning to cleaner energy sources. Energy Efficiency Improvement Project Activities are a vital component, promoting enhanced energy efficiency in existing biomass (co-)fired power-only plants. Such improvements can lead to capacity expansion, often achieved through retrofitting, ultimately reducing emissions and advancing sustainable energy generation.

Additionally, ACM0018 accommodates Fuel Switch Project Activities, encouraging the replacement of fossil fuels with biomass in existing power-only plants. This transition substantially reduces the carbon footprint of electricity generation, aligning with global efforts to combat climate change and promote cleaner energy alternatives. Furthermore, this methodology allows for the installation of biomass (co-)fired power-only plants with integrated solar thermal power generation, expanding the scope of clean energy options for areas where solar thermal technology has yet to be employed.

Objective and Scope of ACM0002

ACM0018 seeks to establish a standardized framework for measuring and verifying reductions in greenhouse gas emissions associated with electricity generation from biomass in power-only plants. The primary goal is to advance sustainable energy production while reducing the carbon footprint linked to electricity generation.

Methodology Overview

ACM0018 is a Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) methodology designed to support carbon offset projects that generate electricity from biomass in power-only plants. These projects aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by utilizing sustainable biomass resources for power generation.

Typical Projects

Typical projects following ACM0018 involve the construction and operation of power plants that use biomass, such as wood, agricultural residues, and organic materials, to generate electricity. Various technologies, including combustion engines, steam turbines, and gas turbines, can be employed. The key goal is to reduce emissions compared to a baseline scenario where non-renewable energy sources would have been used for electricity generation.

Available Roles

Project Participant - The project participant is responsible for executing the emission reduction project. The project participant must adhere to the requirements outlined by the CDM and provide evidence of the emission reductions achieved. Upon successful verification, the project participant receives certified emission reduction (CER) tokens as an incentive for their emission reductions.

Verification and Validation Body (VVB) - The VVB plays a critical role in independently verifying and validating the project data submitted by the project participant. They thoroughly assess the project's emission reduction potential, methodologies, and adherence to the policy guidelines. Based on their evaluation, the VVB either approves or rejects the project for registration.

Registry (UNFCCC) - The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) serves as the registry for the CDM. They oversee the multiple workflow steps involved in the project's approval, including the verification and validation process by the VVB and the endorsement by the DNA. The UNFCCC's approval is necessary for the project's successful registration and issuance of CER tokens.

Step-by-Step

  1. Log in as the Standard Registry and import the policy either by file or through IPFS timestamp by selecting the third button at the top right.

  1. Once the policy has successfully imported, you will be redirected to the policy configurator. The policy configurator can be used to edit the policy using the workflow blocks. There will also be a tab for the โ€œToolsโ€ used within this policy as illustrated in the image below. To start using the policy you must first change the status of the policy from โ€œDraftโ€ to โ€œDry Runโ€ or โ€œPublishโ€, then select the โ€œRegisterโ€ or โ€œGoโ€ button. This can be done through the policy configurator page or though the โ€œPoliciesโ€ page.

  1. Create a new user by clicking the โ€œCreate Userโ€ button and assign their role as โ€œProject Participantโ€.

  1. The Project Participant can now provide their name or the name they would like to see reflected when registering for this project (i.e. their organizationโ€™s name).

  1. ะกreate a new user again and assign their role as โ€œVVBโ€.

  1. The VVB can now provide their name or the name they would like users to see when reviewing projects (i.e. their organizationโ€™s name).

  1. Log in as the SR and select the โ€œProject Participantsโ€ or the โ€œVVBsโ€ tab to view the documents submitted by the Project Participant and by the VVB. The SR can approve their requests by clicking on the โ€œApprove" button.

  1. Log in as the Project Participant and create a new project by clicking on the "New Project" button. This form is used to collect information about the project, organization, and all the data needed to run the emission reduction calculations. Once all the required fields have been filled the โ€œCreateโ€ button will turn dark blue. By selecting the โ€œCreateโ€ button all the data will be sent to the SR for review/approval.

  1. Log back in as the SR and after reviewing the document located in the โ€œProjectsโ€ tab, the SR can validate the project submitted by the Project Participant by clicking the โ€œValidateโ€ button. If the data does not satisfy the rules set by the SR, then the โ€œRejectโ€ button can be used.

  1. Log in as the Project Participant and create a monitoring report by clicking on the โ€œAdd Reportโ€ button then fill out the monitoring report form.

  1. After creating the monitoring report, the project participant assigns the VVB to verify it by navigating to the โ€œMonitoring Reportsโ€ tab and selecting the dropdown under โ€œAssignโ€.

  1. Log in as the VVB and click the โ€œMonitoring Reportsโ€ tab to review the document submitted by the Project Participant. After reviewing the monitoring report by selecting โ€œView Documentโ€, the VVB can select โ€œVerifyโ€.

  1. Log in as the SR to review the monitoring report by selecting the โ€œView Documentโ€ button in the โ€œMonitoring Reportsโ€ tab. The SR can approve the monitoring report by selecting โ€œApproveโ€. This will also trigger the minting process. You can see the minting status under โ€œStatusโ€ change from โ€œMintingโ€ to โ€œMintedโ€.

  1. Once the minting process is completed, you can view the token amount by navigating to the โ€œVPsโ€ tab.

  1. The TrustChain can also be viewed by clicking on the โ€œView TrustChainโ€ button. Please note that the token amount may show โ€œ5600/71825โ€ when the tokens are still minting like the example provided below. Once all the tokens have been minted the token transfer will begin.
