Description

Under the Greenhouse Gas Emissions Cap and Trade System Regulations (RSPEDE), emitters must cover their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, i.e. obtain an emission allowance for each ton of GHGs they have emitted into the atmosphere and return them to the government. Emitters must cover emissions reported and verified in accordance with the Regulations on the Mandatory Reporting of Certain Contaminant Emissions into the Air (RDOECA). CO2 emissions (t eq. CO2) from a biogenic source (example: biomethane), CO2 (t eq. CO2) captured, stored, valued or transferred off-site as well as emissions attributable to mobile equipment are excluded and should not be covered. Reporting issuers are as follows: * Industrial establishments that emit 25,000 tmt eq. CO2 or more per year (aluminum plants, cement factories, refineries, chemical factories, steel mills, mines, etc.); * Producers and importers of electricity, whose GHG emissions associated with the production of this electricity equal or exceed 25,000 tm eq. CO2 per year; * Distributors of fuels and fuels used in Quebec (gasoline, diesel, propane, diesel, propane, propane, butane, kerosene, coal, petroleum coke, coal, distillation gas, ethanol, biodiesel, ethanol, biodiesel, diesel, propane, propane, propane, propane, propane, propane, butane, kerosene). Distributors must cover the GHG emissions attributable to the use of the products they distribute; * Industrial installations that report annual emissions equal to or greater than 10,000 mt/eq. CO2, but less than the threshold of 25,000 mt/eq. CO2, who wish to become emitters subject to SPEDE. The data is presented in separate files: * GHG emissions covered by establishments subject to RSPEDE; * GHG emissions attributable to the use of fuel and fuel volumes declared by all distributors covered by the RSPEDE.
