METHODOLOGY
Greenhouse gas emissions from the production and use of transport fuels, bioliquids shall be calculated as follows:
(a) greenhouse gas emissions from the production and use of biofuels calculated as:
+ e + e + e + e – e – e – e , l p td u sca ccs ccr emissions from the use of the fuel;
emissions from the extraction or cultivation of raw materials;
annualised emissions from carbon stock changes caused by land-use change;
emissions from processing;
emissions from transport and distribution;
emissions from the fuel in use;
emission savings from soil carbon accumulation via improved agricultural emission savings from CO capture and geological storage; and 2
emission savings from CO capture and replacement. 2
from the manufacture of machinery and equipment shall not be taken into
(b) Greenhouse gas emissions from the production and use of bioliquids calculated as for biofuels (E), but with the extension necessary for including the energy conversion to electricity and, or heat and cooling produced, follows:
(i) For energy installations delivering only heat:
(ii) For energy installations delivering only electricity:
Where
EC = Total greenhouse gas emissions from the final energy commodity. h,el
E = Total greenhouse gas emissions of the bioliquid before end-conversion
η = The electrical efficiency, defined as the annual electricity produced el by the annual bioliquid input based on its energy content
η = The heat efficiency, defined as the annual useful heat output h annual bioliquid input based on its energy content.
(iii) For the electricity or mechanical energy coming installations delivering useful heat together with electricity mechanical energy:
(iv) For the useful heat coming from energy delivering heat together with electricity and/or mechanical where:
EC =Total greenhouse gas emissions from the final energy commodity. h,el
E =Total greenhouse gas emissions of the bioliquid before end-conversion.
η =The electrical efficiency, defined as the annual electricity produced el by the annual fuel input based on its energy content.
η = The heat efficiency, defined as the annual useful heat output h annual fuel input based on its energy content.
C = Fraction of exergy in the electricity, and/or mechanical energy, el (C = 1). el
C = Carnot efficiency (fraction of exergy in the useful heat). h (SUSTAINABILITY CRITERIA)
efficiency, C , for useful heat at different temperatures is defined as: h
Temperature, measured in absolute temperature (kelvin) of the useful heat at delivery.
Temperature of surroundings, set at 273.15 kelvin (equal to 0 °C)
heat is exported for heating of buildings, at a temperature below 150°C kelvin), C can alternatively be defined as follows: h
Carnot efficiency in heat at 150 °C (423.15 kelvin), which is: 0.3546
purposes of that calculation, the following definitions apply:
(a) "cogeneration" means the simultaneous generation in one process of energy and electricity and/or mechanical energy;
(b "useful heat" means heat generated to satisfy an economical justifiable demand for heat, for heating and cooling purposes;
(c) "economically justifiable demand" means the demand that does not the needs for heat or cooling and which would otherwise be satisfied at conditions.
Greenhouse gas emissions from biofuels and bioliquids shall be expressed
(a) greenhouse gas emissions from biofuels, E, shall be expressed in grams of CO equivalent per MJ of fuel, g CO eq/MJ. 2 2
(b) greenhouse gas emissions from bioliquids, EC, in terms of grams of equivalent per MJ of final energy commodity (heat or electricity), g CO eq/ 2
heating and cooling are co-generated with electricity, emissions shall be between heat and electricity (as under 1(b)), irrespective if the heat is used Note 1 heating purposes or for cooling ( ).
greenhouse gas emissions from the extraction or cultivation of raw e are expressed in unit g CO eq/dry-ton of feedstock, the conversion to ec 2 CO equivalent per MJ of fuel, g CO eq/MJ, shall be calculated as follows 2 2
where:
Fuel feedstock factor = [Ratio of MJ feedstock required to make 1MJ a
Emissions per dry-ton feedstock shall be calculated as follows:
