The overall objective
of the consultancy is to
advance
in the design of a project reveals the needs and the benefits of this potential
replacement project. The following activities have been identified:
1) Quantitative
estimate of the substitution potential of diesel generating groups in terms of
displacement of emissions and other associated benefits.
- Selection
of unit emission factors of atmospheric pollutants of local and global impact
associated with diesel generator sets.
- Preliminary
estimation of the emission factor of the network for the year to be defined (as
a baseline for greenhouse gas emissions).
- Systematization
of information of generators in the country, grouping them by size and
characteristics, as well as an estimation of the projected renewal rate and an
estimation of the benefits as product of a massive substitution, taking
advantage of economies of scale.
- Identification
of the emission displacement potential, recognizing the dimension "unit
emissions" and the "effect on the electrical system".
2) Characterization of BESS systems.
- Description of BESS systems.
- International references of recognition of
complementary services of BESS systems.
- Identification of barriers for implementation
(comparative analysis of advantages and disadvantages with respect to
traditional systems).
- Reference of cases of installation of BESS
systems in renewable energy projects.
3) Design of a valued strategy to make possible the development of
pilot projects and an implementation or scaling model.
- Based on the above background, define a case of
pilot application based on the use of environmental instruments or other
instruments available in the country.
- Case selection with smaller implementation gaps
based on local conditions.
- Preliminary design of a methodology for the
recognition of the displacement of atmospheric emissions of local impact under
the scheme of compensation of emissions.
- Design of replacement pilot including
associated costs.
- Preliminary assessment of scaling up the
proposal, considering the recognition of auxiliary services and the potential
use of other incentive instruments such as the Green Climate Fund.
The Director for the
Sub-regional Office will directly supervise the consultant for the Southern
Cone, with the Climate Change Coordinator in the UN Environment Regional Office
for Latin America as second supervisor.
