− The calibration is conducted at the frequency as specified by the methodology and the monitoring plan contained in the approved revised GS-VER-PDD.

3.6. Assessment of data and calculation of emission reductions (246)

A complete set of data for the specified monitoring period is available.

The critical parameter used for the determination of the Emission Reductions is the net electricity supplied to the grid by the Project. The data pertaining to the above parameter are maintained in the identified records. All the data are in compliance with that stated in the Monitoring Report version 03.

As per the methodology ACM0002 Version 12.1 and the approved revised GS-VER-PDD, the emission reductions for the Project are calculated as the baseline emissions minus the project emissions and leakage. Hence the emission reduction is determined by the following formula:

ERy = BEy-PEy-Ly

Where,

ERy: Emission reductions

BEy: Baseline emissions

PEy: Project emissions

Ly: Emissions due to leakage

[Baseline emissions]

The baseline emissions are the baseline emission factor times the net electricity supplied to the grid Therefore,

BEy = GENy * EF Where: BEy = Baseline Emissions in year y; t CO2 GENy = Net electricity delivered to the grid by the project activity in year y excluding transmission losses of the grid. EF = Emission Factor calculated according to selected methodology EFCO2: GHG emission factor of the Turkish national Grid, calculated ex-ante in the registered GS-VER-PDD as 0.6233 tCO2e/MWh.

The net electricity delivered to the grid (GENy) can be calculated as:

GENy = EGexport – EGimport

The verification team has cross-checked the values from the Monthly reading records /13/ with the PMUM screens /14/ for the period from 01/07/2010 to 31/12/2011. The conservative values are used for emission reductions calculation. The verified values are shown in the Table 3.

BE1stMP = BE2009+BE2010+BE2011 = 76,973 + 126,558 + 163,839 = 367,370 tCO2e

[Project emissions]

The Project is a newly built wind power project, thus according to ACM0002 Version 12.1 the project emissions are zero.

[Leakage emissions]

No leakage needs to be considered according to ACM0002 Version 12.1.

[Emission reductions]

The emission reductions during the monitoring period from 01/07/2009 to 31/12/2011 are calculated as:

ERy = BEy-PEy-Ly= 367,370 - 0 - 0 = 367,370 tCO2e

[Comparison of ERs]

The annual estimated emission reductions are 162,058 tCO2e as per the approved revised GS-VER-PDD until 2012.After 2012 annual estimated emission reductions are 212,832 tCO2e. In the current situation the monitoring period is between 01/07/2009 and 31/12/2011 so the acceptable the annual estimated emission reduction is 162,058 tCO2e. The actual operation days of the Project in the monitoring period are 913 days. The corresponding estimate in the monitoring period are 405,145(=162,058*913/365) tCO2e. The actual emission reductions are 9.3% less than the estimated value in the monitoring period.

The variation is due to the installation of extension turbines, and it is deemed to be reasonable.

� Corresponding to the paragraph 246 of VVS version 03.0, Bureau Veritas Certification can confirm that:

− Data used for the determination of the emission reductions are available and monitored in accordance with the monitoring plan contained in the approved revised GS-VER-PDD.

− Information and data provided in the monitoring report have been cross-checked with other sources such as plant logbooks, inventories, purchase records, laboratory analysis.

− Appropriate methods and formulae for calculating baseline emissions, project emissions and leakage have been followed.

− Assumptions, emission factors and default values that were applied in the calculations have been justified.
