The objectives of the Landfill
Gas-to-Energy (LFGTE) Initiative in Latin America and the
Caribbean are to. 1) contribute to the maximization of
methane emissions reductions and the development of carbon
trading opportunities; 2) promote LFGTE investment in Latin
America and the Caribbean to improve solid waste management
practices in the region; 3) create awareness of LFGTE
opportunities; 4) document and disseminate LFGTE experience;
and 5) establish knowledge sharing mechanisms to increase
cooperation. The aim of this report is to document the
dissemination activities and outputs of the LFGTE
Initiative, including case studies of LFGTE projects in
Brazil, Canada, Chile, Latvia, Mexico, Uruguay, South
Africa, and Poland, a "Handbook for the Preparation of
LFGTE Projects," a workshop in Monterrey, Mexico in
October 2003 in which these documents were presented, a
knowledge network on LFG, and a Web site for the LFGTE
Initiative. In addition to these efforts, the LFGTE
Initiative identified landfill sites for pre-investment
feasibility studies. Of the 26 sites that submitted letters
of interest, 10 were chosen for pre-investment work, and 5
of those 10 were selected for additional pump tests.
Investment resources, including carbon credit financing,
were mobilized for viable sites. Along with these efforts, a
Latin American LFG Project Expo was held in Montevideo,
Uruguay, in July 2005 to disseminate experience and promote
LFGTE projects in the region among the private and public sectors. |
