  • ACM0001 - Flaring or use of landfill gas - 15.0-19.0: approved
  • ACM0001 - Flaring or use of landfill gas - 19.0: under assessment

The CCP label is applied to credits by the registry, issuance by issuance. An approved methodology means credits from this project can be eligible; it does not mean every credit carries the label.
