The Opinions On Revision For The Geothermal District Heating Emission Reduction Methodology

In June 2012，China government released the regulation for the administration of Chinese Certified Emission Reduction transactions，and stablished its own domestic carbon market. Most emission reduction evaluation methodologies under CDM mechanism can be used in China's carbon market, including the methodology for geothermal district heating project, AM0072 ver. 2 - Fossil Fuel Displacement by Geothermal Resources for Space Heating. It was translated from English version to Chinese version, and the No. for CCER methodology is CM-022-V01. However, some descriptions and technical terms were confused during the translation. The original CDM methodology was come from the new methodology NM0261, which was based on a project in Xiong County, Baoding City, Hebei province. This project was designed and planned to be implemented at 2006, with the rapid development of geothermal industry and the geothermal space heating technics, the design of the station may different. As more and more projects are implemented in many provinces in the North China, the geothermal resources are also different, it is necessary to revise the methodology fit for more project situation.
