Register of Offset Credit Projects

The Carbon Market

The Register of Offset Credit Projects is a public database that contains information and various documents concerning projects submitted to the Minister under the offset credit component of the Québec cap-and-trade system for greenhouse gas emission allowances (SPEDE). Its contents include all project reports and verification reports submitted pertaining to the application for the issuance of offset credits and the breakdown of the credits issued for each project. The register is updated each second and fourth non-holiday Wednesday of the month.

The register indicates the number of offset credits issued corresponding to the greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions or removal of GHGs from the atmosphere as a result of the project. Out of the total number issued, 97% of the credits, rounded down to the nearest whole number, are transferred to the promoter and the remainder are placed in the Minister’s environmental integrity account.

Project

Title: Reduction of GHG emissions at the Marchand sanitary landfill site

Summary description of the project: The operation of the collection network and biogas suction and destruction equipment at Marchand sanitary landfill will be carried out in January 2024. The GHG emission reductions thus obtained will be recorded under the Regulation respecting landfill methane reclamation and destruction projects. This regulation governs the creation of offset credits for the destruction of methane by thermal oxidation in a flare on a voluntary basis. According to initial estimates, the project will allow an estimated reduction emission of around 50,000 tonnes of CO₂ equivalent over a 10-year horizon.

Modification of the project

• Modified project title: Reduction of GHG emissions at the sanitary landfill site and the engineered landfill site of La Lièvre
• Description of the modifications: The project modification is mainly to connect the engineered landfill site (lieu d'enfouissement technique – LET) to the existing biogas capture and destruction system at the sanitary landfill site (lieu d’enfouissement sanitaire – LES) of La Lièvre. The initial project involved only the sanitary landfill, containing 314,015 tonnes of waste and including a total of 26 extraction wells. The modified project extends the biogas collection system to the engineered landfill, containing 114,138 tonnes on November 30, 2015, via three new extraction wells. The connection of the engineered landfill to the sanitary landfill system was completed on November 26, 2015.
• Summary description of the project modifié: The construction and operation of a landfill gas collection and destruction system at the La Lièvre sanitary landfill was performed under the "Programme Biogaz" of the Ministère. This project allowed for the reduction of GHG emissions totalling 37,122 tonnes from August 19, 2009 to December 31, 2013. Since the “Programme Biogaz” is now over, WSP wishes to continue the voluntary reduction of GHG emissions at the La Lièvre sanitary and engineered landfills under the SPEDE program.
• Modified project commissioning date: 2015-11-26
• Average annual reductions estimated by the promoter for sanitary and engineered landfills (mt CO₂ eq.): (sanitary landfill) 4,500 and (engineered landfill) 4,400
• Total reductions estimated by the promoter for sanitary and engineered landfills (mt CO₂ eq.): (sanitary landfill) 45,220 and (engineered landfill) 40,200

Project

Title: Capture and destruction of biogas – Area B of the RDL engineered landfill site

Summary description of the project : In agreement with the city of Rivière-du-Loup (RDL), a biogas extraction and destruction system was built at the engineered landfill site (lieu d’enfouissement technique – LET) of the city. The biogas is collected from the vertical and horizontal wells of area B in a network of underground pipes and routed to a continuously operating flare for destruction. The site has two separate landfill areas. The present application relates to only one area, the one in operation, i.e. area B.

Project

Title : Reduction of GHG emissions at the Marchand engineered landfill site

Summary description of the project: The operation of the collection network and biogas suction and destruction equipment at Marchand engineered landfill site will be renewed from 2024-12-11 to 2033-12-10. These activities will allow GHG emission reductions which will be recorded under the Regulation respecting landfill methane reclamation and destruction projects. This regulation governs the creation of offset credits for the destruction of methane by thermal oxidation in a flare on a voluntary basis. According to initial estimates, the project will allow an estimated reduction emission of around 183,000 tonnes of CO₂ equivalent over a 10-year horizon.

Project

Title: Reduction of GHG emissions at the Saint-Flavien engineered landfill site

Summary description of the project:  A landfill gas extraction and destruction system was established and commissioned at the Saint-Flavien engineered landfill site (lieu d'enfouissement technique – LET) in the region of Lotbinière in 2016. The greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions thus obtained will be recorded within Protocol 2 of the Québec cap-and-trade system for greenhouse gas emission allowances.

Project

Title: Reduction of GHG emissions at the Matane engineered landfill site

Summary description of the project: The installation of a collection network and equipment for the extraction and destruction of biogas at the Matane engineered landfill site will be carried out in mid-2022. The resulting greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions will be reported under the Regulation respecting landfill methane reclamation and destruction projects eligible for the issuance of offset credits. This regulation covers the creation of offset credits for the destruction of methane by thermal oxidation in flares on a voluntary basis. Estimated GHG emission reductions for this project are approximately 90,000 tonnes CO₂ equivalent over a 10-year horizon.

Project

Title : Refrigerant Management Canada Ozone Depleting Substances Destruction Project 2017

Summary description of the project: Refrigerant Management Canada operates a voluntary collection and destruction program for excess ozone depleting substances (ODS) from the Canadian refrigeration and air conditioning industries. There are no regulations or incentives to recover and destroy ODS at the end of a product's useful life, resulting in ODS being reused or stored indefinitely until gradually released into the atmosphere. Recovered ODS are destroyed at the Swan Hills Treatment Center located in Swan Hills, Alberta. This reporting period involves an event of destruction of an ISO tank containing pure R-11 that took place in May 2017.

Project

Title: Refrigerant Management Canada Ozone Depleting Substances Destruction Project - 2023

Summary description of the project: Refrigerant Management Canada (RMC) was formed in response to the Montreal Protocol in 2000. RMC operates a nonprofit organization which administers a voluntary refrigerant ODS destruction program. As there are currently no regulations or market incentives in place to collect and destroy ODS at the end of a product’'s useful life, they can be reused or stockpiled indefinitely, resulting in their gradual release to the atmosphere. Through the RMC’s voluntary program, ODS from Canadian refrigeration and air conditioning industries is transferred to Veolia ES Technical Solutions in Texas, USA, where the ODS is destroyed via incineration. The project involves the destruction of a pure R-11 ISO tank.
