Methodologies
Procedures built to highlight the unique characteristics of each project within the diversity of the Brazilian landscape.
-
LCS002 — Emission Reductions through the Use of Renewable Energy Sources for Electricity Generation
A methodological procedure for structuring, data acquisition, and estimation of greenhouse gas emission reductions achieved through electricity generation projects using renewable, clean, or lower-emission sources integrated into interconnected or isolated energy distribution systems.

LCS003 — Conservation of Native Brazilian Forests on Private Land
A methodological procedure for data acquisition and structuring of greenhouse gas removal projects through the conservation of native private forests across all Brazilian biomes, aimed at reducing real emissions caused by land-use changes — primarily deforestation and forest degradation. It recognizes the value of existing carbon stocks and the potential for new removals through biodiversity conservation and the maintenance of ecosystem services, while also highlighting qualitative co-benefit indicators related to community, biodiversity, and water resources.
