Marginal Cost of Abatement

Whether you are a compliance party or a high energy user, you will benefit from understanding your marginal cost of abatement. Companies prepared with their marginal cost of abatement will know exactly what technologies to implement at certain carbon prices.

We can assist you to calculate direct carbon impacts, identify reduction opportunities and prepare your marginal cost of abatement curve.

CRI’s services to your organisation can include:

Scoping meetings: Scoping meetings can identify potential opportunities and would include appropriate executives that can advise on an acceptable financial return on investment time frame, what net present value to use and advice on liquidity and cash flow. This will feed into CRI’s development of an abatement plan for your organisation.

Seminars: These include education of facilities managers, production managers and engineers on how they determine the financial paybacks from abatement activities such as avoided energy use, avoided fuel consumption and the direct release of greenhouse gases, and how to model in the cost of carbon.

Abatement opportunity identification: With assistance from the CRI Staff, and alongside the education seminars, the organisation's engineers, facilities and production managers will be guided in finding abatement opportunities and calculating the financial paybacks.

Marginal Cost of Abatement Curve report: CRI will assess the opportunities provided by the facilities managers and engineers, cataloguing them in terms of return on investment. From this data CRI will advise on those opportunities to implement without a cost of carbon and provide a report detailing the companies marginal cost of abatement i.e. what technologies to implement as the price of carbon rises.
