Grid emission factor: the methodology sets rules for it in some cases. CarbonMeld reads it in the project's documents. CM-F-ACM0025-GRID-EF
ACM0025 — Construction of a new natural gas power plant
About this methodology
Projects build gas power plants; the method compares their emissions with the electricity supplies they replace.

How methodology v3 reads projects of this type
What CarbonMeld reads
A confirmed investment analysis A-INVEST
The documents show a project-level additionality test, the validation confirmed it, and it is an investment analysis (a numeric test of the project's finances with and without carbon revenue).
Deductions that can apply
No additionality test in the documents (renewable energy) A-TEST-NOT-STATED
Renewable energy, power generation and supply: the documents read state no additionality test. A test that the documents do not name is a different case. It takes no points. CarbonMeld applies this rule only where a check of the documents has confirmed its condition; without that check, the rule takes no points.
Set by the methodology or the programme, not assessed by our current method
- not assessed
Leakage: the methodology sets rules for it (ACM0025 para 36, p. 10). Our current method does not assess it. CM-F-ACM0025-LEAKAGE
- not assessed
Social safeguards and consent of communities (FPIC): any such rules come from the programme, not the methodology. Our current method does not assess it. CM-F-ACM0025-SAFEGUARDS-FPIC
Not applicable to this type — never a gap in our current method
The criterion does not apply to this methodology. Our current method never counts it as a gap.

Which registries list projects under ACM0025?
In CarbonMeld's data, ACM0025 projects are on one registry: CDM (3 projects, 3 registered).
| Registry | Projects | Registered | Projects list |
|---|---|---|---|
| CDM (UNFCCC) | 3 | 3 | See the list |
Counts of project records in CarbonMeld's data, with or without a CarbonMeld analysis. «Registered» counts the records whose current registry status is «registered», as last read (13 November 2026); projects in a later status, such as awaiting verification approval, late to verify or completed, are not in that column.
One of these projects has no number: additionality, quantification or both have no public grade of its type of project that applies to it yet. Its page shows the analysis.
