Define the actual project

01 / Material identity

Source and composition; biogenic and fossil fractions; sampling and allocation method accepted by the relevant program.

Evidence status

02 / Facility permission

Jurisdiction, location, activity, feed and throughput envelope; application and approval conditions; lawful outlets for all residual streams.

Evidence status

03 / Product pathway

Actual feedstock + process + fuel + use; legal route and administrator; required registration, reporting and credit-generation conditions.

Evidence status

04 / Lifecycle and traceability

Applicable methodology and version; boundaries, metering and sampling; supply-chain declarations; verification responsibilities and failure remedies.

Evidence status

05 / Monetization

Claimant and ownership; no double counting; qualified output and realized price; costs, timing, duration, coordination restrictions and downside.

Evidence status

Policy-revenue admission test

Qualifying output × realizable unit value, less compliance and monetization costs, with timing and duration explicit. This is an analytical framework, not a statutory formula.

Keep unverified support outside the base case; record it separately as conditional upside. This is an analyst convention, not a legal requirement.

Primary sources and limits

Document dates differ from access and effective dates. Canada PDF currency: 30 September 2026. EU consolidated directive examined: 16 July 2024. IRS February 2026 announcement: proposed rules. Argonne 2011 and Task 33 2025 are dated studies, not 2026 certificates for individual plants.
