Submission incomplete:
1: The PP/DOE are requested to present the sensitivity analysis of the investment analysis as per EB 48 Annex 60 paragraph 10 (a).
The Project Design Document (PDD) has not provided the description on result of project cost variation in the sensitivity analysis given that 5% reduction in the project cost could result in the Project IRR higher than the benchmark.
2: The PP/DOE are requested to list all the data and parameters to be monitored in line with applied methodology as per EB 48 Annex 60 paragraph 10 (a).
Please report why the installed capacity of the project and surface area of the reservoir are not included in the monitoring plan given that the project activity results in new reservoir (page 15 of the Final Validation Report).
3: The DOE is requested to include information on how it has validated the input values to the financial calculations as per VVM v 1.2 paragraph 114 (a).
In particular : 1. the project cost, the DOE requires to provide detail information on: (a) the exact source of the project cost including the relevant dates; (b) the name, value and dates of the contracts used for cross checking, (c) how the capital cost range US1400/kW and 2,200/KW is suitable to cross check the unit capital cost of the proposed activity?, 2. the price for energy sale , the DOE is requested to provide information on how the price for energy sale was valid and available at the time of investment decision given that the Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) was signed on 06/02/2009 after the project starting date 15 Dec 2008; 3. the O&M cost, information is required on :(i) the values and date of contract signed for O&M of the project, (ii) how individual elements of the O&M cost has been validated ?, (iii) how the unitary O&M Cost of 107$/KW for the proposed activity is justified given that the average O&M cost of other mini-hydro power plants is in the range of 60-80 $/kW ?
4: The DOE is requested to provide information on how it has assessed each barrier presented as per VVM v 1.2 paragraph 118 (a) and (b).
The page 23 of the Final Validation Report presents the following two different sets of statistics for share of small hydro powers, large hydro powers and fossil fuel based power plants in the total power generation of Nicaragua in 2008 : (i) 0.1%,11.75%, 64.33% and (ii) 0.12%,17.4%,73%. Please clarify this inconsistency.Information is required on how the prevailing practice prevent the project activity from being implemented and how the CDM status will eliminate such barrier.
