50MW Biomass Power Project in Yen Bai Province
- Representative Participant
- eREX Co.,Ltd
Outline of GHG Mitigation Activity
In Yen Bai Province, a 50 MW biomass power generation project is to generate power by burning wood residues such as scrap wood generated from lumber processing plants in the surrounding area. The electricity is sold to the Vietnam Electricity to replace the grid power source and to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
This project also contributes to achieve the conditional NDC through the bilateral cooperation by 2030 compared to BAU.
Expected GHG Emission Reductions
81,802 tCO2-eq./year
= (Reference CO₂ emissions) – (Project CO₂ emissions)
・ Reference CO₂ emissions
= (Quantity of the electricity generated by the project)
[MWh/year] × Emission factor [tCO₂/MWh]
・ Project CO₂ emissions
= (CO2 emissions for fossil fuel used by biomass power generation)
[tCO2/year] + (Heat Quantity needed for project’s fuel transportation )
[GJ/year] × Emission factor [tCO₂/GJ]
