Submission incomplete:
1: Scope: The verification report does not state that the monitoring has been carried out in accordance with registered or the accepted revised monitoring plan. (VVM v.1.2 para 206 & 221(d))
Issue: There is inconsistency in the montioring of the grid emission factor. The monitoring report contains the ex-ante value, however, the DOE (VR page 7) states it should be monitored ex-post but as the ex-ante is more conservative, it was accepted. However, the validation report (page 7) states that it is fixed ex-ante.

2: Scope: The verification report does not contain information on all CARs, CLs and FARs and/or provide an assessment and close out of any CARs, CLs or FARs issued. (VVM v.1.2 para 192, 194)
Issue: The DOE raised CAR2 regarding the source of the biomass fuel (small branches of trees) that were used in the project plants and closed it when the PP provided a letter from the village administrative indicating the source of biomass from infrastructure development activities and field clearance works. However, the DOE shall also confirm if the source of the biomass used is renewable biomass as required by the applicable methodology.

3: Scope: The verification report does not provide an assessment on whether the calibration of measuring equipments was conducted at a frequency specified in applied monitoring methodology or EB guidance if applicable, and/or the monitoring plan? (VVM v.1.2 para 184 (a) (ii) & EB 52 Annex 60)
Issue: The DOE in the verification report (page 15) states that “The calibrations of the meters have been performed once a year and not once in six months as mentioned in the registered PDD. The annual calibration certificates for Export/import meters confirm that the errors are with in accuracy limits of class 0.2 at all times. Since the stated frequency of calibration was not adhered to, as per the “Guidelines for assessing compliance with the calibration frequency requirements” the maximum inaccuracy class of the meter has been applied for the measured value for calculating the emission reductions.” However, the DOE makes no reference to the calibration of the meter with serial number of 06767466 which was installed at the Dindigul Plant, calibrated on 20 November 2006 and replaced on 24 July 2008.
