Development of Organic Waste GHG Calculator

Client: Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC)
Dates: 2018 – 2019

AET Group was retained by ECCC to develop a public-facing tool for the calculation of GHG from the treatment and disposal of organic waste. The calculator will be used by both public-sector and private-sector stakeholders that have an interest in reducing GHG emissions from organic waste management. In the development of the calculator tool AET conducted an extensive review of existing calculation tools and best practices in organic waste GHG calculations. AET also solicited feedback at various stages of the calculation tool’s development from a stakeholder advisory group with pan-Canadian representation.
