34A Information about net abatement calculations that must be included in offsets report
An offsets report for a reporting period for a project must include details of the net abatement calculations for the reporting period, including the following:
(a) the output of each equation in this determination used to calculate the net abatement amount for the reporting period;
(b) if biogas generation for biomethane is carried out as part of the project, details about the biomethane production loss factor used to calculate net abatement;
(c) the basis upon which equations 10 and 11 were calculated;
(d) if biomethane production is carried out as part of the project, details of the displacement abatement calculations (that is, the calculations made under Division 3 of Part 4), including the following:
(i) information on volumes and methane concentrations of biomethane produced during the reporting period;
(ii) details of the volumes and eligible abatement fractions of biogas treated by each project biomethane facility during the reporting period;
(iii) information on the sources and volumes of project emissions from treatment of biogas by biogas upgrading;
(iv) if QBG, El, g is determined in accordance with subsection 32J(2) for a reporting period:
(A) an explanation of how the proportion of biogas that is eligible biogas, EBg, was determined; and
(B) evidence or data supporting how EBg was calculated; and
(C) a signed declaration from the person that estimated EBg that the factor is accurate and conservative.
