Call for input on the top-down revision of the methodology "AMS-II.J: Demand-side activities for efficient lighting technologies", (23 October to 05 November 2015, 24:00 GMT)

The SSC WG is seeking input on the top-down revision of the approved methodology: 

 “AMS-II.J: Demand-side activities for efficient lighting technologies”.

The draft revision is based on the request by the Board (EB 85 report, para. 56) to include consistent methods and provide more flexibility to project proponents to determine the usage hours of lighting equipment in a conservative manner in “AMS-II.J: Demand-side activities for efficient lighting technologies”.

The draft revision:

(i)      Enables the use of field monitored data on lamp failure over the modelled lamp failure data;

(ii)     Clarifies that the barrier analysis of the tool “Demonstration of additionality for small-scale methodologies” should be applied for technologies not included in the positive list.

 Stakeholders are invited to provide their inputs on the draft revisions of the methodologies, as contained in annex 3 of the report of the 49th meeting of the SSC WG. Stakeholders are invited to provide their inputs in the commenting table found here.

The scope of the public input shall include but is not limited to text highlighted in the draft revised methodology, as contained in annex 3 of the report of the 49th meeting of the SSC WG. Furthermore, the SSC WG would like to receive input on the following issues:

(a)          Whether the proposed monitoring requirements (i.e. Option 1 and 2) under AMS-II.J are appropriate;

(b)          Whether AMS-II.J should be expanded to cover greenfield projects, and if so, please suggest what conditions should be introduced.

The call for inputs from stakeholders was open from 23 October to 05 November 2015, 24:00 GMT.

The public inputs will be taken into account when preparing the draft revised methodology to be recommended to the Board at a future meeting.

No input was received.
