Project Description

Calculation of the reduction in carbon emissions from the operation of the metro line constructed by the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure of Türkiye. The metro significantly reduces greenhouse gas emissions compared to road transportation based on fossil fuels. The emissions are notably lower than those in the baseline scenario, where road transport was the primary mode of transit before the metro's implementation, underscoring its environmental benefits.

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.
