Submission incomplete:
1: The registered PDD (page 3 & page10) states that “project activity aims to construct up to 10,000 domestic biogas units of mainly 2m3 and 3m3 gas storage capacities each for individual households of at least 2 zero-grazing cows in Nairobi River Basin” and “Project activity displaces use of non-renewable biomass by introducing biogas digesters and stoves.” The DOE (verification report Section E.3) has confirmed that the project has installed 796 biogas units. The DOE is required to provide further information on how it verified (i) the introduced biogas stoves and (ii) that the biogas units were installed in households owning at least 2 zero-grazing cows in order to conclude that the implementation and operation was conducted in accordance with the description contained in the registered PDD (VVS-PA ver. 03 paragraph 354).


2: The registered monitoring plan has listed monitoring of the parameter “statistically adjusted drop out from total population of units in period (DOy)” and the monitoring survey confirmed that the biogas units were operational. The DOE is required to provide further information on how it verified the operational status of the biogas stoves as per paragraph 12 of AMS-I.E. ver. 04 (which requires monitoring to check all appliances).


3: The emission reduction calculation has assumed that all the project activity households using baseline non-renewable woody Biomass (NRB) have switched to the introduced renewable biomass (RB). However, no information how the DOE confirmed the complete displacement of all the NRB at each installation site (please refer to AMS-I.E. ver. 04 para 14).
