REnewable GAs TRAde Centre in Europe

Deliverables

Guidelines for the verification of cross-sectoral concepts

The report will elaborate the GoO framework for different renewable gases, including rules and specifications for the data to be contained on the GoO and including procedures for issuing, transfer, cancellation.

Report on potentials and hot-spot regions

This Deliverable will contain the results from the assessment of CO2 potentials from biogas upgrading processes in Europe from the assessment of potentials of promising feedstocks and from a neighbourhood analysis as well Based on this results potential hotspot regions for the development of integrated biomethane and powertomethane concepts will be identified

Memorandum of Understanding among national issuing bodies to set-up the network

The national GoO issuing bodies joining the European network must agree on the basic principles of GoO exchange transactions, on the sustainable financing and operation of the network, on the conditions of accepting new partners, on basic audit requirements, fair treatment of members including sanction system, etc.

Guidelines for establishing national biomethane registries

The guideline is intended to create a uniform understanding of the necessary functionalities and legal requirements for the establishment and operation of biomethane registers in the target countries. The harmonization of the registers will be supported to simplify the cross-border trading of certificates and the associated exchange of information. It is based on the experience of existing European registries and takes upcoming EU legislation like RED II into account.

Guidelines for tender process of IT-services

Describes the necessary tasks, documents, rounds of tendering including validation measures and needed processes to be executed for the selection of the best-suitable supplier for the trading platform. The Guidelines will include a potential bidder list which can be used for next steps and can be used to conduct the tender for the needed services.

Report on content and attributes of GoO

The content and attributes of the biomethane GoOs must be coordinated and agreed among the partners in order to enable mutual compatibility of GoOs issued in different countries. The requirements of RED II must be reflected in the content of the GoOs.

Harmonised set of rules for the conversion of electricity to biomethane/renewable gas and hydrogen GoO

Developing guidelines on how to foresee compatibility between separately managed GoO systems This includes a report of an investigation on whether development of recognition criteria between separately managed GoO systems either convergence of such systems is a way to achieve the goal

Updated Guidelines for creating the European Biomethane GoO

The Guidelines produced within the previous BIOSURF project will be updated to reflect the changes which occurred in the meantime, such as the RED II, the establishment of the ERGaR association, etc. Furthermore, AIB documentation will be analysed to include potential synergies between the electricity and the gas sector.

Report on the set-up of biomethane registries

The report will provide a review of the measures implemented in the respective target countries to support the establishment and operation of a biomethane register The specific challenges and solutions in the considered countries will be discussed Furthermore a comparative analysis of the individual national action plans for the establishment and operation of a biomethane register will be carried out

Mapping on the state of play of renewable gases market in Europe

A comprehensive review country-by-country to define the state of the art of the biomethane market in Europe covering the regulatory framework, economic/fiscal regimes, production, existing production, consumption patterns, market environment and all other related issues.

Long-terms visions and roadmaps

Strategic visions and roadmaps countrybycountry for facilitating the development of the production and usage of renewable gases including recommendations for legislative and market changes and for actions aimed at achieving the required development in production consumption and trade

Dissemination, Communication & Exploitation Plan

The Report will contain a clear description of the project’s objectives, a detailed overview of target groups and the methodology on how to approach them, the complete basket of communication tools, services and products.

Guidelines on renewable gas sustainability certification

The aim of this Deliverable is to present a set of guidelines for a harmonised sustainability certification approach for PowertoMethane pathways and technology combinations The guidelines will be based on the experience derived from existing liquid and gaseous pathways and on the discussion of the most relevant questions identified These relevant questions to be answered involving aspects such as the sustainability of the electricity used the origin of the carbon source as well as the crosscompatibility between the sustainability frameworks for bioenergy electricity and possible other sectors to be considered

Assessment of results and key success factors

The aim of this Deliverable will be the identification and description of the most important factors and key drivers for the success of integrated biomethane and powerto methane concepts This will based on a comprehensive assessment of the potential environmental and economic performance of biomethane and powertomethane concepts

Investigative study of IT system options for harmonized European cross border title-transfer of biomethane/renewable gas certificates

Investigation and evaluation of the requirements and options for establishng the IT systems for secure, reliable and transparent cross-border title-transfers of biomethane/renewable gas certificates. In particular, processual, administrative, technical and organisaiotn requirements will be determined (based on a SWOT analysis).

Recommendations for EU and national policy makers

The report formulates the recommendations coming from the project to the EU and national policy makers

Report on setting-up the network of national issuing bodies

Report on the results of the work aimed at settingup the national issuing bodies detailed country by country explaining the legal and administrative solutions applied in the individual countries showing the results of startup and operation

Report on Dissemination, Communication and Exploitation

Report on Dissemination Communication and Exploitation It will include a list of dissemination actions and of the dissemination channels used as well as a description of all written spoken and electronic interaction

Guidebook on securing financing for biomethane investments

The Guidebook to provide practical information to the biomethane project developers and other stakeholders on securing financing for investments.

Final Evaluation Report

The report will assess the results of the Evaluation analysis performed during the duration of the project

Project Evaluation Plan

The report designs in detail the activities, methods, format, key performance indicators and timing of evaluation analysis.

Guidance for feasibility analysis

The Guidance to assist project developers in realising biomethane investment projects based upon the analysis of political economic technical environmental and financial factors influencing the feasibility of biomethane investment projects

Technical and operational comparison of the biomethane/renewable gas GoO system and the electricity GoO system

The technical requirements and specification of the trading hubs and the general requirements for biomethane/renewable gas GoO and electricity GoO will be evaluated and compared against each other based on specific criteria. The results of WP2 will be the input for the biomethane/renewable gas GoO system. The EECS rules and the technical specifications of the AIB hub are the input for the electricity GoO system.

Techno-economic feasibility study on a harmonized system for cross border title-transfer of the renewable character of gas in Europe

This study will identify the most viable option as a result of the investigation and evaluation of different IT options It will be performed with a view on an interlinkage of existing systems to provide a common and harmonized biomethanerenewable gas market
