AM0041 — Mitigation of Methane Emissions in the Wood Carbonization Activity for Charcoal Production
About this methodology
Projects improve the design and operation of charcoal kilns. The method measures reductions in methane released during the conversion of biomass to charcoal.

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).
A methane activity the law requires A-LEGAL
The rule applies to projects that capture or avoid methane. These are landfill gas, manure, wastewater, composting and coal-mine methane. They also include orphan wells, oil and gas leaks, rice, enteric methane and household biogas. The documents state that the law requires the activity. Or the documents state that a law requires the capture of the gas. An activity that the law already requires is not additional. If the documents show that the baseline already deducts the amount that the law requires, CarbonMeld takes no point.
Set by the methodology or the programme, not assessed by our current method

Sustainability of the feedstock: the methodology sets rules for it in some cases (AM0041 v01 applicability, p. 2). Our current method does not assess it. CM-F-AM0041-FEEDSTOCK-SUSTAINABILITY
- 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-AM0041-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 AM0041
Browse 3 published projects using AM0041, 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.

Which registries list projects under AM0041?
In CarbonMeld's data, AM0041 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 (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.
