According to the monitoring plan in the registered PDD (Sec. D.2.1.3, pp. 23-24) "Plant Name," as ID#8, which refers to the "Identification of power source/plant for the OM" is a parameter to be monitored. However, the VCR in Sec. E.6.1. Data and parameters fixed ex-ante (p. 11), states "Plant Name is fixed ex-ante defined in registered PDD. This was checked and verified from power source/ plants for the OM and confirmed there is no change in plant name". The VR also concludes: "Value of parameter reported in the monitoring report and corresponding emission reduction calculations spreadsheet are consistent with the registered PDD. The applied values are correct and justified."

The MR also lists Plant Name, described as Identification of power source/ plant for the OM, as a parameter fixed ex-ante. The MR also notes: Value(s) applied: Not applicable. The DOE is requested to explain how it has complied with the CDM VVS for PAs, version 3.0, paras 364 and 395(e), in particular, (a) how it has considered that the Plant Name as the Identification of power source/ plant for the OM is listed or reported as specified in the registered PDD; and (b) how it has verified the information flow for this parameter, including the values reported in the monitoring report and the ER caclulation spreadsheet.

The VCR notes in Sec. E.6.2 (pp. 14-15) that due to the identified delays in calibration, a conservative error factor of 0.2% has been applied on the values of electricity export and import for the months February to April 2014, July 2014 to September 2014, December 2014 to August 2016, and November 2016 to February 2017.

However, the DOE has not confirmed that the result of the delayed calibration is within the maximum permissible error of the measuring instruments, as specified by the manufacturers as part of their technical specifications. The DOE is requested to clarify how it has determined that the application of the error factor is conservative in line with the CDM VVS for Project Activities, version 3.0, para 366(a).
