Technical note on assessing black carbon reductions using the Long-range Energy Alternatives Planning (LEAP) system with an Integrated Benefits Calculator (LEAP-IBC)

This report outlines the data needs, modelling and scenario development undertaken using the Long range Energy Alternatives Planning (LEAP) system with Integrated Benefits Calculator (LEAP-IBC) in order to carry out an assessment of the potential reductions in methane and black carbon (BC) emissions from the cessation of flaring and venting of gas in Mexico and Colombia.
