About this project

The description is as the source gives it.

Methane generated from sewage treatment plants collected and incinerated in boilers for electricity and heat supply across production bases, substituting coal and reducing emissions through waste-to-energy. Evidence: "We collect the methane generated from the process as clean energy to be incinerated in boilers... Methane generated from sewage treatment plants is incinerated for electricity and heat supply to substitute for some coal" — https://ndpaper.com/en/esg/esg/esr2024.pdf

Statuses, countries and reductions are as the public source states them, and may be out of date.
