Grid emission factor: the methodology sets rules for it in some cases. CarbonMeld reads it in the project's documents. CM-F-AM0032-GRID-EF
AM0032 — Methodology for waste gas or waste heat based cogeneration system
About this methodology
Projects use surplus industrial waste gas or heat to produce steam and electricity for other users. The method measures emissions avoided by replacing those users' energy supplies.

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).
Set by the methodology or the programme, not assessed by our current method
- 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-AM0032-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.

Projects using AM0032
Browse 2 published projects using AM0032, listed alphabetically. There is no ranking for this methodology yet: it appears here automatically once 5 of its projects not in the pipeline or under validation are rated. Open a project to view its registry details and the analysis available for that project.
Which registries list projects under AM0032?
In CarbonMeld's data, AM0032 projects are on one registry: CDM (2 projects, 2 registered).
| Registry | Projects | Registered | Projects list |
|---|---|---|---|
| CDM (UNFCCC) | 2 | 2 | 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 (15 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.
