Project Description

Afforestation on the farm Freyshólar in Fljótsdalshérað based on different goals and species composition. Based on the afforestation plan, there will be 79.884 plants in the 36 hectare area planted; 0,8 ha of black cottonwood, 16 ha of Sitka spruce, and 18,7 ha of Lodgepole pine and are expected to be planted over two years in this scenario. The goal is carbon sequestration, improved hydrology, soil conservation, and to provide diverse habitat as well as improving the site for outdoor recreation and providing the possibility of future timber production.

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 4a additionality

Financial additionality I. A project is financially additional if it results in higher costs or relatively lower profitability than would have otherwise occurred in the baseline scenario.
