# Greenhouse Gas Accounting and Climate Risk

*Discipline: climate_and_ghg | Tenant: Meridian Environmental Partners | Register refs: EP4-P2*

## Emissions

Displaced grid generation avoids approximately
318000 tCO2e/yr.
Against this, methane from flooded biomass is
estimated at 41200 tCO2e/yr, declining over the
first two decades; both figures are carried into the net position.


## Physical climate risk

Downscaled projections indicate a 9 to 14 per cent reduction in mean annual runoff by 2050 under a high emissions pathway. The historical record is non-stationary and should not be used unadjusted for sizing.
