Quantification Method Development Guidance Document

The Clean Fuel Regulations (the Regulations) will recognize actions that reduce a fossil fuel’s carbon intensity (CI) through Carbon Dioxide Equivalent (CO₂e) Emission Reduction Projects (“project”) at any point along the lifecycle of a liquid fossil fuel. The ability of a project to create credits will be governed by a quantification method (QM) provided by Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC). This document provides guidance on the process ECCC and experts will follow to develop those QMs and criteria to assess additionality of project types.
