Methodology for animal manure management and biogas use for thermal energy generation

The Gold Standard has developed a methodology for the activities that involve recovery and use of methane from manure and agricultural wastes that would be decaying anaerobically, emitting methane to the atmosphere in the absence of the implemented activity. This methodology replaces the application of “Technologies and Practices to Displace Decentralized Thermal Energy Consumption (TPDDTEC) v3.1” methodology for biogas generation and application for thermal energy project activities. The methodology presents an integrated methodology for AWMS and thermal application of captured biogas with multiple options.
