| Specification: | Efficiency improvement by boiler replacement or rehabilitation and optional fuel switch in fossil fuel-fired steam boiler systems.
Applicability
This methodology is applicable to project activities that in an existing facility:
• Completely replace one or more boilers with some remaining lifetime; and/ or
• Implement fitting of additional new equipment to an existing steam generating system
( retrofitting) ; and
• Implement optional switch in fossil fuel.
The methodology is applicable under the following conditions:
• Steam generation in the project activity is carried out through the use of fossil fuel fired steam boiler( s) ;
• National/ local regulations do not require the replacement or retrofit of the existing equipment. The project participants shall demonstrate this through documented evidence snd shall be submitted to UNFCCC;
• There are no enforced national/ local regulations/ standards on minimum efficiency ratings for the boiler( s) included in the project boundary. The project participants shall confirm this through documented evidence ( e.g. building code documents, industrial regulations, etc) . |
