8. Green Gas Certification Biomethane Certification in Ireland Brendan O’Riordan – Green Gas Certification Project Lead GMARG- 18 th April 2019
Green Gas Certification - Background • Biomethane = a renewable energy source ‒ a green gas, identical properties to fossil gas (methane) ‒ Produced from biodegradable organic materials (e.g. organic waste, sludge, silage/grass, slurry, etc.) ‒ A clean, renewable & carbon-neutral fuel • Biomethane Certificates ‒ Each certificate represents a guarantee that 1 MWh of biomethane has been injected into the GNI grid. ‒ Certificate issued to the producer of biomethane, who can transfer ownership to an end-consumer of gas. Valued by end-consumers = using a carbon-neutral fuel & EU-ETS • National Targets - facilitate overall national reporting of GHG emissions reductions • National Schemes – facilitate interface for both BOS for transport & SSRH for biomethane in heat 19
RED II, Art.19: Elements of a Guarantee of Origin (‘GO’) M.S. must issue a GO for each MWh of energy produced from all renewable sources Proof of Origin From which Green Gas production plant did this green gas originate from? Name, Location, Type, Capacity Proof of Amount How much green gas was produced? When was is produced/injected? Proof of Quality Sustainability Criteria: GHG Value 20
Green Gas Certification Scheme for Ireland • System to issue certs for biomethane produced & injected into grid. • Processes to trace biomethane from production to consumption • Auditor to verify origin of biomethane within the Registry ‒ inspect production plant, feedstocks and processes, ‒ verify quantity & quality • Comply with RED II sustainability criteria & classifications 21
Process: End-to-End Producer GNI Shipper Waste to Biogas to Biomethane Contract with Biomethane Transport bio-methane through T to Producer & D networks Grid Injection - Gas & Certificate Capacity Booking from Shipper Capacity Booking & Commodity Entry – Biomethane Pt Certificate for each 1 MWh Charge w/ GNI Exit – Pt of Consumption Contract w/ gas consumer to Contract with Shipper to sell Issue Certs (GO’s) for supply biomethane injected Biomethane and/or Cert Fossil Gas or Green Gas 22
