Methodology Element Information
| Methodology element name | Methodology for Fuel Switch to Renewable Biomass for Thermal Applications |
| Methodology element category | Methodology |
| Description |
The methodology comprises a shift to an alternative production process or to a partial substitution of fossil fuels and/or non-renewable biomass with any combination of renewable biomass in thermal applications. Thermal energy in any form is produced by burning carbon neutral renewable biomass. In the absence of the project activity, thermal energy would have otherwise been produced in a more carbon-intensive way. The methodology combines multiple UNFCCC methodologies to create a comprehensive tool for assessing project-based GHG emission reductions resulting specifically from a fuel switch to a renewable biomass from a range of fuels. |
