Determinations with regard to a JI track 2 Nairobi, 14th November 2006 JI-SC side event at COP/MOP Thomas Kleiser TÜV SÜD Industrie Service GmbH
TÜV SÜD - Overview • TÜV SÜD: • 12.500 employees active world wide in the field of inspection and certification (especially for products, management systems, plants, airplanes, cars etc.) • worldwide presence with offices in more than 50 countries • Carbon Management Service • Currently 12 fix employed persons in Munich (economists, experts in different fields of natural sciences, engineers, foresters) • Furthermore pool of experts worldwide (in total 55 trained auditors) - 7 of them also working full-time in CDM/JI business • - Validation, verification and certification of GHG projects (national/JI/CDM) • - Verification and certification of emission inventories (EU-Directive) • - Certification of energy from renewable sources + Knowledge management • (www.netinform.netand newsletter
Excerpt from Reference List (JI) Main project types: - renewable energy - energy efficiency - fuel switch- landfill gas - agriculture - afforestation - coal mine methane - N2O
Accreditation under CDM • Experience (actual status): • JI: • determination of around 35 JI projects (10 in Ukraine; 9 in Russia) • verification (started) of around 10 JI projects • 2 Projects currently published at JI-SC; • 4 more expected for publication in the next two weeks
Project types: - Rehabilitation/Improvement of district heating networks and power plants - Coal mine methane utilization projects - Cogeneration - Energy Efficiency - Fuel Switch to Biomass - Animal waste management system – methane utilisation - Renewable energy (wind and hydro power) - Cement projects
Experiences from determination of JI-projects Positive: - well-developed PDDs already in the initial phase of validation • in most cases good data basis • high standard in technical planning and technical solutions • in most cases development of a project-specific methodology • very complex projects (bundle of measures in on project) - well-developed monitoring concept
Experiences from determination of JI projects More critical: - In some cases limited understanding of “additionality” • International accepted values (IPCC) not always applied • Problems in defining project boundaries correctly and to include all emission sources - Changes of project measures during project lifetime - Changes in the monitoring plan (missing sensibility what a JI project means) • Limited local stakeholder process • Not all “JI-documents” in English available • LoA
Resumee and Expectations Resumee: - Nearly all JI projects determined by us can or could run under Track 2 and are able to fulfil the requirements set up by the JI-SC • In some cases major adjustments will be necessary; also experiences from CDM should be considered in the baseline concept and monitoring plan. • Problem: Early projects
Resumee and Expectations Expectations: • Individual project and country-specific approach for baseline and monitoring concept should be accepted also in cases when a CDM methodology is available • Smooth, transparent registration process. • Stable rules! Avoid setting up a bureaucratic framework, • Trust the (applicant) independent entities! • Exchange of experiences between invoveld parties (JISC, IE, project developers, investors etc.) at least every six months
