California Energy Commission - Public Interest Energy Research Program PIER Program Funded by the electricity and natural gas rate-payers Funding climate change research since 2001 Implementing a roadmap of research developed in 2003 Created the California Climate Change Center Produced more than 50 PIER reports on  Climate Analysis and Modeling  Inventory Methods  Mitigation Options  Impact and Adaptation Studies Organizes Annual Research Conferences on Climate Change

California Energy Commission - Public Interest Energy Research Program PIER/CEC Landfill Methane Study Methane emissions estimates from landfills are highly uncertain Goals: 1.Obtain a better understanding of the performance of various cover materials to control methane emissions 2.Create a detailed landfill methane emissions model 3.Incorporate these results into an improved inventory methodology for landfill methane emissions A 3-year project, from

California Energy Commission - Public Interest Energy Research Program Project Description Investigate the use of data collected by IWMB and air district as predictive parameters Collect 2 years of field data, using flux chambers to obtain emission rates Measurements taken at individual landfill cells Methane plume mapping with lasers will be in use at one landfill to provide additional field validation (Waste Management) Create a scientifically sound and practical “validated” model  Account for variation across landfills and climates  Account for oxidation in cover soils. This will be a key component of the model
