Methane-Abatement Project Advisory. We support landfill owners, waste-management companies, municipalities and project sponsors assessing carbon-credit opportunities from landfill gas capture and destruction.
Landfill Gas and Methane Carbon Credit Projects
Landfills can produce methane as organic waste decomposes. A carbon project may quantify avoided emissions when eligible methane is captured and destroyed through flaring, energy generation or another approved system. Crediting depends on the regulatory baseline, project additionality, ownership of emission reductions and verifiable operating data.
Assess the Methane-Abatement Opportunity
Technical Feasibility
Review waste volumes, landfill age, gas-generation estimates, collection infrastructure, destruction equipment and the proposed operating model.
Baseline and Additionality
Establish what would occur without the project, including existing legal requirements, current gas management and financially realistic alternatives.
Monitoring and Quantification
Design metering, calibration, methane-content measurement, equipment-uptime and reporting controls through our carbon MRV and quantification support.
How FG Capital Advisors Supports Sponsors
We can undertake a carbon project feasibility analysis, identify documentation and data gaps, assess methodological fit and coordinate project design. For viable projects, our support can extend to monitoring plans, technical documentation and validation and registry registration.
Where methane abatement relates to decommissioned wells rather than waste facilities, review our oil and gas well methane-abatement consulting.
Submit a Landfill Methane Project
Provide the landfill location, ownership or operating rights, annual waste intake, site history, existing gas-management system, regulatory requirements and any gas-generation or engineering studies.
Submit a ProjectCarbon-credit issuance is not guaranteed. Eligibility, additionality, baseline acceptance, quantified emission reductions, validation, verification and registry acceptance depend on the applicable methodology and site-specific evidence. FG Capital Advisors provides advisory and project-development support and is not a validation or verification body, engineering contractor or registry.
