Call for public input on the revision of the methodology "ACM0003: Partial substitution of fossil fuels in cement or quicklime manufacture", (6 July to 20 July 2020, 23:59 CEST)

The Methodologies Panel (MP) was seeking inputs on the revision of the methodology “ACM0003: Partial substitution of fossil fuels in cement or quicklime manufacture”, as contained in MP 82 Annex 2.

The work is being carried out in response to the mandate from the Board at its 101st meeting (EB 101 report, para. 35) to revise ACM0003 to introduce reference to “TOOL16: Project and leakage emissions from biomass”. Further, the Board at its 102nd meeting (EB 102 report, para. 39) requested the MP to also consider issues in the methodology related to the “fuel penalty”.

The scope of the public input included but was not limited to the highlighted text.

Stakeholders were invited to provide their inputs on the methodology in the commenting table found here.

The public inputs will be taken into account when preparing the final draft of the methodology to be recommended to the Board.
