Statutory additionality. The project implements actions that go beyond statutory requirements.

Level 2a additionality

ISO 14064-2 GHG emissions additionality. GHG emission mitigations are additional to the baseline scenario.

Level 1 additionality

Technology, institutional, common practice additionality. The project implements climate actions that are subject to barriers to implementation or accelerates deployment of technology or activities.

Level 3 additionality

Financial additionality. Carbon credit revenues maintain the projects operations.

Level 4a additionality

Policy additionality. Project implementation goes beyond its host country's climate objectives.

Level 5 additionality

Asia

Grid connected renewable electricity generation

In order to calculate wastewater avoidance from the facility (by taking cooling water discharge in thermal power plants into account), the first step is to calculate a factor showing estimated wastewater discharge per GWh generated electricity. This factor is derived by dividing “Total Waste Water Discharged by Thermal Power Plants in the related year (2012 in this case)” with “Total Electricity Generation in 2012 (GWh) in the related year in GWh”. Then, the wastewater discharge in the baseline scenario is reached by multiplying this factor with the estimated electricity generation of the WPP. This output also refers to Avoided Wastewater Discharge Amount.

Elen Enerji Üretimi Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş. invested into a hydro power plant to generate electricity and feed it into the Turkish grid. The hydro power project is plant to be built close to Gelinkaya village of Erzurum city in Turkey. The license for Gelinkaya 6.866 MW hydro project in the region of Erzurum, was issued by EMRA on March 2010. Construction work for project is finished in August 2010. The project is expected to generate 25,800 MWh  of clean energy per annum. The estimated CO2 emission reductions is 14,324 tCO2e. The total crediting period of the project activity is 10 years and the corresponding emission reductions for the whole period is 143,240 tCO2e. The project’s monitoring period is the same as its crediting period, which is between 14/06/2013 and 13/06/2023 – both days included.
