Carbon Reduction (ISO 14064-2) Course Brochure

ISO 14064-2 Essentials – Greenhouse Gas ProjectsThis course provides a background and introduction to greenhouse gas projects. Projectsthat both reduce emissions (e.g. alternative energy systems) and enhance emission removals(e.g. forestry projects) are addressed. The course reviews the requirements of ISO 14064-2,including principles and requirements for determining project baselines, monitoring, quan-tifying and reporting project performance, and validation and verification requirements. Thecourse also explores the linkages between ISO 14064-2 and other GHG protocols, such as theWRI/WBCSD GHG Protocol for projects and the Voluntary Carbon Standard. Potentiallinkages with the Clean Development Mechanism will also be discussed.Reducing Your OrganisationalEnvironmental ImpactCOURSE MATERIALSINCLUDE:4 Course Binder, including slides, exercises, case studies4 ISO 14064-2 standard: ISO 14064-2:2006 – Specification with guidance at the project level for quantification, monitoring and reporting of greenhouse gas emission reductions or removalenhancements.WHO SHOULD ATTEND4 Individuals involved in the management of project GHG emissions, energy and environmental consultants, GHG validators and verifiers.PRE-REQUISITE:4 NoneAGENDACourse Introduction• Welcome, introductions and course administration• Introduction to ISO, ISO 14064 standards & WBCSD/WRI GHG ProtocolIntroduction to GHG Projects• Overall introduction to GHG projects• Types and rationale for GHG projects• Key points of the GHG project cycleISO 14064-2 Terms & Definitions• Overview of ISO 14064-2 GHG Standard for Projects and WBCSD/WRI• GHG Protocol for Projects• Key terms and definitions, Principles, General requirementsIdentifying Sources, Sinks, Reservoirs• Identifying sources, sinks and reservoirs (boundaries and leakage)• Identification of SSRS relevant to the project• Seven Step Procedure to identify relevant SSRs for the project• Application of Procedure• Documentation of the application of the procedure Determining the Baseline Scenario• How to select a procedure• Project Specific procedure• Identification of potential baseline candidates• Barriers test• Performance standard• Comparison of CDM Additionality Tool and WBCSD/WRI GHG Protocol for ProjectsQuantifying GHG Emissions or Removals• Quantifying GHG emissions and/or removals• Selection of relevant SSRs for monitoring or estimationQuantifying GHG Emissions or Removals• Quantification of GHG emission and removals• Use of emission or removal factors• Types of emission factorsGHG Monitoring and Data Management• GHG Monitoring and Data Management• Monitoring Plan• Developing a Monitoring Plan• Quality Control, Quality Assurance• GHG Information Management SystemDocumenting and Reporting• Documenting, validating, verifying and reporting the GHG project• ISO 14064-2 Reporting Requirements• Documenting the GHG project • Validation and/or verification of the GHG project• Reporting the GHG project, GHG Protocol Requirements on Reportingcarbon management & trainingMeasure carbon • reduce eMissionsbecoMe verifiably sustainableTel: +44 207 397 8500Email: info@carbonaction.co.ukwww.carbonaction.co.ukISO 14064-2Essentials – Greenhouse Gas ProjectsThis course was developed by CSA Standards, and is delivered byCarbon Action.16 St. Martin’s LeGrand, St. Paul’ sEC1A 4EN, London,UK
