Project related text:
The project shall result in electric and thermal power generation using natural gas. If there were no project, heavy fuel oil would be replaced with coal.
Thus, the project implementation leads to the replacement of a high-carbon fuel (coal) with a low-carbon one (natural gas). This will lead to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions because natural gas firing releases less greenhouse gases than coal firing.
The other party will be determined at a later stage.
Current status of the project Operational
Total verified emission reductions 0.0 t CO2 equivalent
