About the webinar

Bioenergy Association has been undertaking a project to develop a standardised methodology for identifying the renewable origin of feedstocks and calculating the carbon intensity of biogas and biomethane produced from anaerobic digestion, landfill gas, and municipal wastewater treatment.  This methodology will be used for Renewable Gas Certificates and by gas users to calculate GHG emissions.

As biomethane and biogas become more common, including for grid injection, a consistent approach to measuring carbon intensity is needed.  The project team has reviewed international standards to create a draft New Zealand carbon intensity methodology, guided by an industry steering group.

The draft recommendation for a methodology is now available for public consultation, and we welcome your feedback. The Bioenergy Association invites all interested parties to attend the session, where the key points of the draft recommendations will be discussed, followed by opportunities for questions and input.
