15 Project sub-types for non-biomethane and biomethane conversion and displacement projects
Note: Biomethane displacement only projects and restarting biomethane displacement only projects do not have project sub-types as the net abatement for these project types does not involve conversion abatement.
- Subject to this section, each project classified as a non-biomethane project or biomethane conversion and displacement project must, at all times, be a project sub-type mentioned in column 1 and a project sub-type mentioned in column 2 of the following table. A project that is a project sub-type is classified as that project sub-type, if the classification occurs in accordance with section 16.
- Project sub-types
- Column 1 Column 2
- Project sub-types—origin status Project sub-types—combustion status
- new project
- upgrade project
- existing upgrade project
- existing enhanced project - electricity generation and flaring project
- flaring only project
- flaring only project (small and regional landfill)
- restarting flaring only project
- A non-biomethane project that is a restarting flaring only project (see column 2 of the table) is not required to be a project sub-type mentioned in column 1 of the table.
- A biomethane conversion and displacement project is not required to be a project sub-type mentioned in column 2 of the table.
