Metodología para el cálculo de emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero producidas por generación térmica : análisis del estado del arte de metodologías desarrolladas para el cálculo de GEI para la generación térmica, análisis comparativo de las metodologías y cálculo de emisiones para el SIN.

Abstract

In this Curricular Integration Work, the calculation of GHG emissions produced by the thermal generation of the SNI is presented. For this purpose, an analysis of the main methodologies used for this type of calculations is carried out, within which the so-called Tool 07 of the UNFCCC was selected, with the objective of calculating and evaluating the CO2 emission factor at the SNI level. In addition to this, the calculation of projected emissions for a generation project based on combined cycle was carried out, with the purpose of establishing guidelines that are useful for other curricular integration works, where it is sought to apply these criteria for studies related to the planning of the power systems. The results obtained have been validated with the reports published by CENACE on its official website (cenace.go.ec), regarding GHG emissions in the country; in addition, an application was developed that automates and facilitates the calculation process for those interested in this type of analysis.
