  1. Current Status- Extension of simplified modalities for demonstration of additionality of small scale CDM projects- FIRST SDM JOINT COORDINATION WORKSHOP, Maritim Hotel, Bonn, Germany 24 - 25 March 2012 Janak Shrestha, Programme Officer

  2. Additionality demonstration of small scale CDM projects according to size: Microscale projects (up to 5MW, 20GWh/y of energy savings or 20kt CO2/y reduction) “Guidelines for demonstrating additionality of microscale project activities” (EB 54, May 2010): Automaticaly additional (conditions apply): Regular small scale projects (15 MW, 60 GWh/y, 60 ktCO2/y“Attachment A to appendix B of simplified modalities and procedure” (EB7, 2003) for demonstration of additionality for): Barrier tests: Introduction

  3. Achievement in 2011 - “Attachment A of appendix B” • EB63 (Sept, 2011) approved Positive Lists ofGrid connected renewable energy technologies of installed capacity up to 15MW: • Solar PV and solar thermal; • Off shore wind; • Marine technologies (wave, tidal); • The technologies are automatically defined as additional, without further documentation of barrier

  4. Achievement in 2011 - Microscale Additionality Guidelines • EB 60 expanded the guidelines to • type III projects, • CPAs, • project activities with more than one component • EB 65 operationalize theprocedure for DNA Submission of Microscale Renewable Energy Technologies for Automatic Additionality(=< 5 MW )

  5. Impact of the Micro scale guideline and the positive list Projects applying micro-scale guidelines (until early Feb 2012): • 31 projects, • 10 in LDCs, most of them are for households energy supply Projects applying positive list(until early Feb 2012) : • 30 projects in validation ( solar electricity generation technologies) • India (21), Thailand (4), South Korea (3), and China (1).

  6. Ongoing work • Extension of Small scale additionality guidelines: ( based on CMP/EB requests, public input, bottom up submission): • Extension of positive list to off-grid renewable energy technologies (e.g., micro hydro, wind-PV hybrid) and distributed energy supply (e.g., household biogas digester) ( EB63/public inputs) • Simplified additionality for rural electrification project activity (CMP/.7 / NM073) • Simplified additionality for livestock manure management technology which capture and combust methane (input from SEI) • Appropriateness of microscale thresholds in the case of CPA (applied to the technology/unit level vs CPA level ) (public input)

  7. Next step Gather inputs through broader consultation • working group • stakeholders/practitioners ( teleconferences, call for public inputs) • Your inputs are critical to make it happen !

  8. THANK YOU

  9. Microscale additionality guidelines • Barrier due to Size renders project additional (conditions apply) • 2 (a) S size in CDM: =<5MW, =<20 GWh/yr, =<20kt/yr; • 2 (b) Geographical location is LDCs OR underdeveloped zones OR off grid areas in DCs; • 2 (c) End users of distributed RE technologies are households/communities/SMEs; • 2 (d)Specific RE technologies with low share in grid-electricity mix.
