Submission incomplete:
1: The DOE is requested to state if the baseline methodology is correctly applied to calculate project/baseline emissions, leakage and emission reductions as per VVM v1.2 paragraph 92(d).
The DOE has confirmed that the baseline methodology is correctly applied, and the VR on p. 22 says, "The project falls under scenario C (“Electricity consumption from the grid and a fossil fuel fired captive power plant”), case CIII (“Electricity from both the grid and captive power plant(s)”), as electricity consumed may come either from the grid or from the captive power plant, depending on the situation. Therefore, the emission factor for electricity generation is taken the more conservative value between the emission factor determined as per guidance for scenarios A and B of the “Tool to calculate baseline, project and/or leakage emissions from electricity consumption”. This value is noted in the PDD, p.46, as 1.3 tCO2/MWh, as per option 2B of the Tool).
However, for the calculation of PEEC,y, the value used in the ER Spreadheet (Tab "Input data" cel F69) is the grid emission factor of 0.967 tCO2/MWh (CEFelec,BL,y). The DOE is requested to explain this inconsistency.

2: The DOE is requested to state that the estimates in the PDD are reasonable for data and parameters that are monitored during implementation and are available after validation as per VVM v1.2 paragraph 91.
The DOE reports the project activity falls under scenario C (“Electricity consumption from the grid and a fossil fuel fired captive power plant”), case CIII (“Electricity from both the grid and captive power plant(s)”), as electricity consumed may come either from the grid or from the captive power plant, depending on the situation. Therefore, the applicable emission factor for electricity generation (EFEL,j,y) is 1.3 tCO2/MWh (as per option 2B of the “Tool to calculate baseline, project and/or leakage emissions from electricity consumption”). However, this value does not match with the reported in the PDD Section B.7.1 and the one used in the calculation of PEEC,y in the ER Spreadheet (Tab "Input data" cel F69).
