This tool calculates GHG emission reductions (“reductions”) and carbon dioxide removals (“removals”) from project activities using mixed biomass feedstocks eligible under VM0049 Carbon Capture and Storage and associated modules.
Further, this tool establishes principles and provides procedures for differentiating baseline emissions and allocating project and leakage emissions among activities that result in GHG emission reductions and carbon dioxide removals.
