Submission incomplete:
1: As per the CDM project cycle procedure for programmes of activities paragraph 220, the CER spreadsheet should include the calculation of emission reductions.
1.1 In the submitted CER spreadsheet, worksheet "ER Summary", emission reductions for CPA1 and CPA2 have been reported under the category "Household stoves" only whereas 1) commercial stoves were sold for CPA1, and the emission reduction calculation worksheet for CPA2 refers to "ER commercial stoves - CPA2" only i.e. the worksheet related to " household" is not included. Kindly note that sales for commercial stoves CS and CL were reported for CPA1, and household stoves under HS, HM, HL have been reported for CPA2 in the corresponding worksheets. Kindly rectify the inconsistency and provide the relevant emission reduction calculation worksheet for "ER household stoves - CPA2" and for commercial stoves for CPA1 as appropriate, please.
1.2. Kindly please provide the spreadsheet that demonstrates the reliability of the sampling i.e. the spreadsheet showing how the confidence/precision has been met, including the calculation.
2: The CDM validation and verification standard for programmes of activities (version 02.0) requires that the DOE shall determine whether each of the included small-scale CPAs remains within the limit of the type of small-scale activities defined in the “CDM project standard for programmes of activities”.
The VVS requies that if the DOE determines that there are no post-registration changes to the PoA or the CPA, as per VVS-PoA para.364, it shall assess whether the calculated GHG emission reductions during this particular year were capped at the amount calculated with the limit of its type i.e. in this case 180 GWh. In the Verification Report, page 44 of 73, it is noted that for 2018 and 2019, 135.75 GWh and 44.95 GWh are claimed, the sum of which are above the 180 GWh threshold. Kindly please clarify how the emissions reductions during the year were capped at the applicable threshold.
3: The DOE shall verify and report on the implementation of the sampling approach in line with CDM validation and verification standard for programmes of activities, version 02.0, paragraph 348, and 374.
It is observed that for the monitoring of the parameter "Parameter ηnew,monitored/age" (Efficiency of stove being deployed as part of the project activity, by age group), the sampling for stoves sold in 2015 were not included whereas there were stoves sold for CPA1 and CPA2 in 2015. Kindly please provide the justification.
4: As per the CDM validation and verification standard for programmes of activities (Version 2.0), paragraph 359, the DOE shall determine whether the information provided in the monitoring report has been cross checked with other sources.
In reporting the user surveys for the parameter Nwood on page 34 of 73 of the Verification Report, the DOE has referred to 283 users surveys whereas in the monitoring report, the PP reported the number as 278 on page 17 of the Monitoring Report. Kindly clarify the inconsistency, please.
