Title of the proposed CDM project activity/PoA submitted for registration	Waste Heat Recovery based Captive Power Project of Adhunik Metaliks Limited
Please indicate, in accordance with paragraphs 37 and 40 of the CDM modalities and procedures, which validation requirement(s) may require review. A list of requirements is provided below. Please provide reasons in support of the request for review. Including any supporting documentation.
The following are requirements derived from paragraph 37 of the CDM modalities and procedures:
The participation requirements as set out in paragraph 28 to 30 of the CDM modalities and procedures are satisfied; Comments by local stakeholders have been invited, a summary of the comments received has been provided, and a report to the designated operational entity (DOE) on how due account was taken of any comments has been received; Project Participants have submitted to the DOE documentation on the analysis of the environmental impacts of the project activity, including transboundary impacts and, if those impacts are considered significant by the project participants or the host Party, have undertaken an environmental impact assessment in accordance with procedures as required by the host Party; The project activity is expected to result in a reduction in anthropogenic emissions by sources of greenhouse gases that are additional to any that would occur in the absence of the proposed project activity, in accordance with paragraphs 43 to 52 of the CDM modalities and procedures; The baseline and monitoring methodologies comply with requirements pertaining to methodologies previously approved by the Executive Board; Provisions for monitoring, verification and reporting are in accordance with decision 17/CP.7, the CDM modalities and procedures and relevant decisions of the COP/MOP; The project activity conforms to all other requirements for CDM project activities in decision 17/CP.7, the CDM modalities and procedures and relevant decisions by the COP/MOP and the Executive Board.
The following are requirements derived from paragraph 40 of the CDM modalities and procedures:
The DOE shall, prior to the submission of the validation report to the Executive Board, have received from the project participants written approval of voluntary participation from the designated national authority of each Party involved, including confirmation by the host Party that the project activity assists it in achieving sustainable development; In accordance with provisions on confidentiality contained in paragraph 27(h) of the CDM modalities and procedures, the DOE shall make publicly available the project design document; The DOE shall receive, within 30 days, comments on the validation requirements from Parties, stakeholders and UNFCCC accredited non-governmental organizations and make them publicly available; After the deadline for receipt of comments, the DOE shall make a determination as to whether, on the basis of the information provided and taking into account the comments received, the project activity should be validated; The DOE shall inform project participants of its determination on the validation of the project activity. Notification to the project participants will include confirmation of validation and the date of submission of the validation report to the Executive Board; The DOE shall submit to the Executive Board, if it determines the proposed project activity to be valid, a request for registration in the form of a validation report including of the project design document, the written approval of the host Party and an explanation of how it has taken due account of comments received.
There are only minor issues which should be addressed by the DOE/project participants prior to the registration of the project.
Additional information
1. The DOE shall ensure that the project description clearly states the differences resulting from the project activity compared to the pre-project situation in compliance with paragraphs 59 and 64 of VVM, in particular, (a) whether the project activity involves use of existing boilers, turbines and generators to generate electricity, and (b) whether integrated iron and steel plant of AML is an existing plant or new construction together with the project activity. 2. The DOE is requested to further justify why coal fired boilers are not included in the project boundary. 3. The DOE is requested to further substantiate: (a) how 36.1 MW (CFBC: 25.4 MW + WHRB: 10.7 MW) power can be generated in the project scenario with 34 MW steam turbines, and (b) the appropriateness of economic comparison, in particular, how the unit cost of electricity from a 55 MW coal based power plant can be compared with that of the project activity (36.1 MW). 4. The PP/DOE are requested to clarify: (a) why electricity imports from the grid in the project activity is significantly higher (196,364 MWh/annum) compared to that in the baseline scenario (41,958 MWh/annum), and (b) why electricity imports from the grid has not been kept equal in both project activity and baseline scenario. 5. The DOE is requested to further substantiate the suitability of input values to economic comparison, in particular, (a) the total project cost, and (b) the annual interest. 6. The means of calculation of QBL,product is not in accordance with ACM0012 version 2. The DOE should have raised a Corrective Action Request to require the project participant to apply ACM0012 version 3.1 or requested a deviation. As no deviation has been requested, the PP should now apply ACM0012 version 3.1 fully to this project activity. The DOE should revalidate the project applying ACM0012 version 3.1. 7. The PP/DOE are requested to further substantiate the applicability of the ACM0012 version 02 to the project activity, in particular, what would happen to the waste gas in the absence of the project activity. 8. The monitoring plan shall include monitoring of: (a) the enthalpy and steam flow rate of each boilers, (b) the rate of waste gas used by each units, (c) the rate of other fuels used by each boilers, (d) the electricity generated by the diesel generators set, and (e) the electricity imports from the grid.
