A.4.4 EXPLANATION ON HOW PROPOSED CDM PROJECT

ACTIVITY CAN REDUCE GHG EMISSIONS

CDM PROJECT CAN REDUCE GHG EMISSIONS BY:

DISPLACEMENT OF ELECTRICTY DEMAND FROM ELECTRICITY
GRID PRIMARILY PRODUCED FROM FOSSIL FUEL WITH
ELECTRICITY PRODUCED FROM RICE HUSK FIRED GENERATOR

PREVENTION OF UNCONTROLLED OPEN AIR BURNING OF RICE

HUSK AS A MODE OF DISPOSAL BY DIVERTING BIOMASS WASTE
MATERIAL TO BOILER FUEL APPLICATION

LESSEN TRAVEL DISTANCE OF TRUCKS DISPOSING RICE HUSK

B. APPLICATION OF A BASELINE METHODOLOGY

B.1: TITLE AND REFERENCE OF THE APPROVED

BASELINE METHODOLOGY

Small scale CDM Type 1 – Renewable energy projects:

I.A. Electricity generation by the user
 B. APPLICATION OF A BASELINE METHODOLOGY

B.2: DESCRIPTION OF HOW THE METHODOLOGY IS APPLIED IN THE

CONTEXT OF PROJECT ACTIVITY

STEPS IN METHODOLOGY APPLIED TO PROJECT TO ASCERTAIN THAT

IT IS ADDITIONAL

1. PROJECT IS DIFFERENT TO BAU PRIMARILY DUE TO

INVESTMENT AND TECHNOLOGY BARRIERS

2. LARGE SURPLUS SUPPLY AVAILABILITY OF BIOMASS

3. THE PLANT SIZE IS LESS THAN 15MW, WHICH IS CONSIDERED

SMALL SCALE TO AFFECT THE BASELOAD OF LUZON GRID
B. APPLICATION OF A BASELINE METHODOLOGY

B.3: DESCRIPTION OF HOW THE ANTHROPOGENIC GHG

EMISSIONS BY SOURCES ARE REDUCED BELOW THOSE
THAT WOULD HAVE OCCURRED IN THE ABSENCE OF A
CDM PROJECT ACTIVITY

THIS PROJECT INTRODUCES STATE OF THE ART TECHNOLOGY TO THE

COUNTRY THAT PROVIDES ENERGY FROM UNUSED BIOMASS AS FUEL

THIS PROJECT IS ADDITIONAL SINCE ELECTRICITY FROM RICE HUSK-

FIRED POWER PLANT IS NOT LOCALLY AVAILABLE DUE TO ABSENCE OF
TECHNOLOGY

IMPORTED TECHNOLOGY IS NOT YET ECONOMICALLY VIABLE.

IT PRODUCES LESS CO2 EMISSIONS DUE TO DISPLACEMENT OF FOSSIL

FUEL FOR HEAT AND POWER GENERATION IN THE BASELINE SCENARIO
WITH BIOMASS FUEL IN THE PROJECT SCENARIO. BIOMASS IS CO2
NEUTRAL
B. APPLICATION OF A BASELINE METHODOLOGY

B.4: DESCRIPTION OF HOW THE DEFINITION OF THE PROJECT

BOUNDARY RELATED TO THE BASELINE METHODOLOGY
SELECTED IS APPLIED TO THE PROJECT ACTIVITY

PER METHODOLOGY, THE PHYSICAL DELINEATION IS

DEFINED AS THE INTERCITY INDUSTRIAL ESTATE WHICH
INCLUDES THE INTERCO POWER PLANT SITE. ALL EMISSION
SOURCES INCLUDED IN THE PROJECT BOUNDARY ARE
WITHIN THE INTERCITY INDUSTRIAL ESTATE.

 D. APPLICATION OF A MONITORING
METHODOLOGY AND PLAN

D.2. JUSTIFICATION OF THE CHOICE OF THE

METHODOLOGY AND WHY IT IS APPLICABLE TO THE
PROJECT ACTIVITY

THE CHOICE OF METHODOLOGY IS JUSTIFIED SINCE THE PROPOSED PROJECT

ACTIVITY AND THE CONTEXT OF PROJECT ACTIVITY MEET THE CONDITIONS UNDER
WHICH THE METHODOLOGY IS APLLICABLE BASED ON THE FOLLOWING:

1. PROJECT ACTIVITY INVOLVES ELECTRICITY GENERATION

UTILIZING RICE HUSK DUE FOR OPEN AIR BURNING

2. HAVE ACCESS TO ABUNDANT SUPPLY OF BIOMASS

3. PROPOSED POWER GENERATION PROJECT IS NOT CONSIDERED A

BUSINESS AS USUAL SCENARIO

4. THE PROJECT IS TOO SMALL TO HAVE IMPACT ON PLANS FOR

CONSTRUCTION OF NEW POWER PLANTS

 F. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
F.1 DOCUMENTATION ON THE ANALYSIS OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL
IMPACTS, INCLUDING TRANSBOUNDARY IMPACTS

SO2 emissions will be within DENR standards. There will be regular

quarterly monitoring to ensure compliance with the standard. Any
expected SO2 will be captured in the scrubber stage of the
electrostatic precipitator.
NOx emissions is not expected to go beyond the standard as the low
NOx design of boiler will ensure compliance.
Particulates and fly ash will be captured in an electrostatic
precipitator for controlled removal..
Wastewater will not be permitted to leave the plant site. Instead, it
will be first treated and then evaporated from an evaporating pond.
Ash will be disposed of safely. If the RHA from the project cannot be
sold, provision has been made to bury the ash on-site, thereby
preventing it from escaping into the atmosphere or entering the local
waterways via runoff.
The large size of the site combined with tree plantings will buffer
ambient noise.
