– Starting of works : May 2004 ;




A. Torres 50 MW wind farmA. Torres 50 MW wind farm

• Full name : Power generation at A. Torres 50 MW wind farm;

• Location : At Taghramt, 10 km far from Tetouan city;










A. Torres 50 MW wind farmA. Torres 50 MW wind farm


– Installed capacity : 50.4 MW using the wind power technology;






– Total cost of the project : US $ 62 million

• Timing :

Full size wind farm projectsFull size wind farm projects

• Methodology :

– Used in “Wigton wind farm in Jamaica” and submitted to CDM EB.

– New consolidated methodology ACM0002 will be used in new PDD version.

• Approach :

– Demonstrate that the project is not BAU;

– Determine the most likely scenario in absence of the project;

– Determine the avoided emissions by calculating the Projected Operating

Margin with weighted CEF of the national power plants ;

• Calculations :

– Through the crediting period, the weighted CEF moves down from 0.805

(2006) up to 0.729 (2009) and then increases to 0.777 (2015);

Small scale wind farm projectsSmall scale wind farm projects

• Methodology :

– Described in paragraph 29 of Appendix B of the simplified M&P.

• Approach :



– Determine the avoided emissions by calculating the Combined Operating

Margin with recent additions weighted CEF of the national power plants ;

• Calculations :
