Submission incomplete:
1: Scope: The verification and certification report does not list each parameter required by the monitoring plan and does not provide an statement on how the DOE verified the information flow for these parameters including the values in the monitoring reports as per VVS version 09.0 paragraphs 393 and 409 (e).
Issue: The DOE is requested to explain how it verified the following parameters:
(a) EGPJ,y: (i) The ER spreadsheet, sheet "Electricity Export Jul15-Apr16" shows the data from "GREL Sectionalizer -1" and "GREL Sectionalizer -1" for the period of 11/07/2015 to 30/04/2016, while for the rest of the monitoring period, these lines are not mentioned. The DOE is requested to provide explanation on these two lines; (ii) In sheet "Electricity Export May16-Oct16" the check meter reading from line #1 is missing, and there is no explanation from the DOE;
(b) EFBL,upstream,CH4: (i) In sheet "EFbl,upstream,ch4", there is a statement saying "There is two plant in the cohort of plants in the build margin which shows Natural gas as the first fuel and Diesel as the second fuel. The separate generation on the two fuels is not available. Thus to be conservative the entire generation for this plant has been considered on Diesel for calculation of EF,BL,upstream,CH4 as diesel has lower Fugitive Methane Emission Factor leading to lower value of EF,BL,upstream,CH4 and higher leakage emission from the project activity.". It is not clear which plants are referred here; (ii) It is also noted that this sheet, in its cells K4 and K5, makes reference to plants in lines 144 and 186 of sheet "BM Plants" for the net electricity generated and absolute emissions from the diesel consumption of the plants. The plants in lines 144 and 186 however only consume gas with secondary fuel being "n/a".

2: Scope: The verification and certification report does not provide an assessment on whether the calibration of measuring equipments was conducted at a frequency specified by the applied methodology, the standardized baseline and/or the monitoring plan as per VVS version 09.0 paragraph 400.
Issue: With regard to delayed calibration of GAIL gas glow meter, the ER spreadsheet shows the adjustment of 0.3% which is the maximum permissible error. However, in the absence confirmation that the result of the delayed calibration was within the permissible error, the DOE is requested to explain how the provision in paragraph 395 of the VVS version 09.0 has been applied correctly. 395).
