Impacts
Project Information
Methane and nitrous oxide emissions are mitigated by refining overshoot manure and digestate in a special processing plant. The plant is built and operated by the better green GmbH and situated in Haselünne, Germany. Surrounding farmers feed their oversupply of manure/digestate into the plant, which refines the slurry to valuable products. In the baseline scenario, manure/digestate is stored for several months, or spread on distant agricultural areas, causing methane and nitrous oxide emissions.

Additionality
Level 1 additionality
Baseline additionality. Compared to the baseline scenario the project needs to mitigate climate change. That is the project must implement actions that are additional to what would occur compared to the baseline.
Level 2a additionality
Statutory additionality. The project must implement actions that are beyond requirements stipulated in local legislation or regulations. Projects are statutory additional if their implementation and/or operation is not required by any law, statute, or other regulatory framework, agreements, settlements, or other legally binding mandates requiring implementation and operation or requiring implementation of similar measures that would result in the same mitigations in the host country.
Level 3 additionality
Technology, institutional, common practice additionality. The project must implement actions that are subject to barriers of implementation or accelerate deployment of technology or activities and carbon market incentives are essential in overcoming these barriers.
