arbcombo -- Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) Certified Pathways Release

Posted: 24 Mar 2017 09:56:38
Staff has released a set of carbon intensity (CI) pathways for
fuels certified under the readopted LCFS regulation using the
CA-GREET 2.0 model. A total of 18 pathways have been certified in
March 2017.  All pathways certified in this release may be used
for credit reporting purposes beginning with reports for Q1,
2017.

All certified CIs are available in one centralized location at:
http://www.arb.ca.gov/fuels/lcfs/fuelpathways/pathwaytable.htm. 

The list of certified CIs at the link above includes all CIs
certified using CA-GREET 2.0.  

To facilitate reporting of fossil natural gas pathways, staff has
certified an ARB pathway for North American Natural Gas to
Compressed Natural Gas (CNG).  This pathway uses a compression
efficiency of 97 percent (average station compression efficiency
for CNG pathways certified between 2016 and Q1, 2017).  Reporting
parties for this fuel may use a Fuel Pathway Code of CNGF205 with
a CI of 79.46 g/MJ effective Q1, 2017.   

Background on the LCFS

The Low Carbon Fuel Standard is a regulation to reduce the carbon
intensity of fuels sold in California ten percent by 2020.  The
LCFS is one of the measures adopted by the California Air
Resources Board, pursuant to Health and Safety Code Sections
38500-38599 (AB 32) to reduce greenhouse gases in California.  It
is designed to help clean the air, protect the environment, and
drive the development of clean, low-carbon fuels to improve
California's energy security and energy independence.
