1. Introduction

1.1 Objective

SGS United Kingdom Ltd has been contracted by The Shell Petroleum Development Company Of Nigeria
Limited to perform an independent verification of its CDM project entitled ‘Afam Combined Cycle Gas
Turbine Power Project’. CDM projects must undergo periodic audits and verification of emission reductions
as the basis for issuance of Certified Emission Reductions (CERs).

The objectives of this verification exercise are, by review of objective evidence, to establish that:

• The emissions report conforms with the requirements of the monitoring plan in the registered PDD
and revised PDD and the approved methodology; and

• The data reported are complete and transparent.

1.2 Scope

The scope of the verification is the independent and objective review and ex post determination of the
monitored reductions in GHG emission by the project activity. The verification is based on the validated and
registered project design document, revised PDD and the monitoring report. The project is assessed against
the requirements of the Kyoto Protocol, the CDM Modalities and Procedures and related rules and guidance.

SGS has, based on the recommendations in the Validation and Verification Standard, employed a risk-based
approach in the verification, focusing on the identification of significant reporting risks and the reliability of
project monitoring.

Due professional care has been exercised and ethical conduct has been followed by the assessment team
during the verification process. The verification report is a fair presentation of the verification activity.

2. Methodology

2.1 General Approach

SGS performs the verification work using a Periodic Verification Checklist prepared following the VVS. The
Periodic Verification Checklist describes the verification approach and the sampling plan.

The checklist gives the assessment team a full understanding of:

• Activities associated with all the sources contributing to the project emissions and emission
reductions, including leakage if relevant;

• Protocols used to estimate or measure GHG emissions from these sources;

• Collection and handling of data;

• Controls on the collection and handling of data;

• Compilation of the monitoring report.

• Means of verifying reported data; and

Using the Periodic Verification Checklist, SGS verified the implementation of the monitoring plan and the
data presented in the Monitoring Report for the period in question. This involved a site visit and a desk
review of the monitoring report. This verification report describes the findings of this assessment.

Only verification activities undertaken after the publication of the monitoring report on the UNFCCC CDM
website were used as a basis for SGS to conclude our verification and submit a request for issuance of
CERs to the Board.

2.4 Reporting of Findings

As an outcome of the verification process, the team can raise different types of findings.

In general, where insufficient or inaccurate information is available and clarification or new information is
required the team shall raise a Clarification Request (CL) specifying what additional information is required.

Where a non-conformance arises the team shall raise a Corrective Action Request (CAR). A CAR is issued,
where:

II. Modifications to the implementation, operation and monitoring of the registered project activity has not
been sufficiently documented by the project participants;

I. Non-compliance with the monitoring plan or methodology are found in monitoring and reporting and
has not been sufficiently documented by the project participants, or if the evidence provided to prove
conformity is insufficient;

III. Mistakes have been made in applying assumptions, data or calculations of emission reductions that
will impact the quantity of emission reductions;

IV. Issues identified in a FAR during validation to be verified during verification or previous verification(s)
have not been resolved by the project participants

The verification process may be halted until this information has been made available to comply with the
requirements of the CDM Executive Board. Failure to address a CL may result in a CAR. Information or
clarifications provided as a result of a CL may also lead to a CAR.

* * *

\[Image: R12\]

A clarification request (CL) will be raised if information is insufficient or not clear enough to determine
whether the applicable CDM requirements have been met. All CARs and CLs raised during verification shall
be resolved prior to submitting a request for issuance.

Corrective Action Requests and Clarification Requests are raised in the Periodic Verification Checklist. The
Project Developer is given the opportunity to “close” outstanding CARs and respond to CLs.

Forward Action Requests (FARs) may be raised during verification for actions where the monitoring and
reporting require attention and/or adjustment for the next verification period, which are for the benefit of
future projects and future verification activities. These have no impact upon the completion of the verification
activity.

All CARs, CLs and FARs for this verification period are included in annex to this report.

2.5 Internal Quality Control

Following the completion of the assessment process and a recommendation by the Assessment Team, all
documentation is forwarded to a Technical Review Team. The task of the Technical Review Team is to
check that all procedures have been followed and all conclusions are justified. The Technical Reviewer will
either accept or reject the recommendation made by the assessment team.

# 3\. Verification Findings

## 3.1 Project Implementation

**/1/** /1.b/ The project activity has been implemented as described in the registered PDD and the revised PDD being submitted with this request for issuance.

The project activity involves the installation of a 650 MW grid-connected combined-cycle gas turbine (CCGT) and the export of the generated power to the Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN) national grid of Nigeria. By generating electricity from natural gas and exporting it to the grid, the project activity replaces the generation of electricity from more carbon intensive fuels and reduces the GHG emissions in the . atmosphere The project activity has applied the approved baseline and monitoring methodology AM0029, /7/ version 3.0. /1/ As per the information available on the UNFCCC webpage for the project activity 5645, this is the first monitoring period for the project activity. The project activity is registered with the UNFCCC on 29/10/2012 with UNFCCC ref no.5645. The project activity has been completely installed and found fully operational /17/ during the verification site visit. The commissioning date of the project activity is 22/07/2009 which is the commissioning of the gas turbines GT11, GT12 and GT13; subsequently the combined cycle mode was commissioned on 04/07/2010. As per the information available on the project page of the UNFCCC website ( [http://cdm.unfccc.int/Projects/DB/DNV-CUK1325573884.39/view](http://cdm.unfccc.int/Projects/DB/DNV-CUK1325573884.39/view)) and the registered PDD,

The technical details of the turbines and generators installed were checked at the site visit and were found to be in line with the monitoring report.

/7/ As per the applied methodology AM0029, version 3.0, the monitoring methodology is applicable under the same conditions as the baseline methodology. The applicability conditions of the baseline methodology have been validated at the time of registration. /1/ /1.b/ The project activity has been installed as described in the registered PDD and the revised PDD. A site visit was conducted by the assessment team to the project activity on 29/10/2014 and 30/10/2014. The actual design, installation and operation of the project activity has been checked and are found to be in /1/ /1.b/ compliance with the information provided in the registered PDD and the revised PDD. The locations of the monitoring instruments and meters have been checked during the site visit and were found appropriate and consistent with the registered and revised PDD and the requirements of the registered monitoring plan. The project boundaries and all the equipments were checked and found to be in line with the registered /1/ /1.b/ PDD and the revised PDD (being submitted along with this request for issuance).

\[Image: R12\]

The project boundary at the site was assessed and is found in line with the registered PDD. There are no
other GHG sources found attributable to the project activity and not included in the project boundary of
registered PDD. Up to the end of current monitoring period (01/11/2012 – 31/10/2013), the project boundary
has always been consistent with the registered PDD. The compliance assessment as per the requirements
/4/
of paragraph 270 of the VVS, version 07.0 have been covered and checked during the site visit for the
project activity.

/1/
As per the registered PDD version 05 dated 29/08/2012, the estimated emission reduction is 550,234
tCO2e per year. The reported and verified emission reductions in the current monitoring period are 541,537
tCO2e. The verified emission reductions are lower by 8,697 tCO2e (1.6%) than the estimate in the registered
PDD. The reason has been verified as less power generation during the current monitoring period, in
comparison to the expected power generation value as envisaged in the registered PDD. This occurred due
/19/
to shut down/outage periods, lower electricity generation, lower gas consumption and due to higher NCV
of fuel gas which was checked against the plant records and was found to be consistent and hence is
accepted by the assessment team.

The following has been checked to verify the applicability of the methodology to the project activity.

| Technology/Measures as per the approved methodology,AM0029,version3.0 | Applicability/Means of Verification |
| --- | --- |
| The project activity is the construction and operation of a new natural gas fired grid-connected electricity generation plant; | The project activity is a newly constructed combined cycle gas turbine power plant with an installed capacity of 650MW comprising of 3x150MW gas turbines and a 200MW steam turbine to generate electricity and supply it to the regional grid of Nigeria, using natural gas as a primary fuel. |
| This fact was checked against the signed copy of PPA18between the Power Holding company of NigeriaPLC and the PP dated09/12/2005and further cross checked during the site visit by the assessment team and hence is accepted. |  |
| The geographical and the physical boundary of the baseline grid was checked to be clearly identified by the assessment team during site visit and found to be consistent with the baseline identified under registeredPDD1/and revisedPDD1/b. |  |
| Natural gas is sufficiently available in the region or country,e.g.future natural gas based power capacity additions,comparable in size to the project activity,are not constrained by the use of natural gas in the project activity. | Natural gas is abundantly available in the country and the region as Nigeria is the largest oil producer in Africa.This fact was checked against the US energy information administration( [http://www.eia.gov/countries/analysisbriefs/Nigeria/nigeria.pdf)and](http://www.eia.gov/countries/analysisbriefs/Nigeria/nigeria.pdf)and) further cross-checked against the public domain available at [http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-09-15/nigeria-must-boost-gas-output-for-power-supply-minister.htmland](http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-09-15/nigeria-must-boost-gas-output-for-power-supply-minister.htmland) hence is accepted by the assessment team. |

## Discussion of CAR/CLs:

The PP was requested to clarify why there was 18% more ERs as compared to the estimated value as per the registered PDD as per requirement of VVS para 262 (b) (vi). CAR01 was raised in this regard.

In response, the justification of the difference in emission reduction as compared to the registered PDD has been found to be correct as based on the lower electricity generation, lower gas consumption and due to higher NCV of fuel gas which was found to be correctly being reported in the MR version 02 dated 10/11/2014 and was found to be consistent and thus CAR01 was closed out.

The PP was requested to clarify why the monitoring report template was not the most recent one available at the UNFCCC website as per the requirement of para 257e of VVS 7.0. Further, the PPs listed on page 1 and in section A.3 did not match those that are on the UNFCCC webpage and the Host Party was not consistent with UNFCCC webpage on Page 1 and in section A.2. CAR02 was raised in this regard.

In response, the PP revised the MR using the latest template and this was found to be consistent with the most recent available template on the UNFCCCs webpage and thus accepted. Also, the listed PPs in the revised MR were checked and found to be updated correctly as per the UNFCCC webpage on page 1 and Section A.3. Host party was also found to be corrected and thus accepted. Emission reductions for 2012 and 2013 were revised on page 1 and Section E.7 (based on 100% data available); the information updated in the MR version 02 dated 10/11/2014 was accepted and thus **CAR02** was closed out. Further detail discussion on CAR02 and relevant conclusion made can be referred under Section 9 of this verification report.

The PP was requested to clarify when the power plant was commissioned and the details of commissioning of all components of the project activity. The PP was further requested to provide the make and serial numbers of all the turbines and generators, transparently in section A.1, including the downtime during the period under verification (from 01/11/2012- 31/10/2013). Also any such event which resulted for any change in equipment had to be listed in section A.1. CAR03 was raised in this regard.

In response, the PP has submitted the requisite commissioning details. The commissioning details of the power plant, Gas Turbines GT11, GT12 and GT13 and Combined Cycle were checked against the /17/ commissioning certificate for GT11, GT12 and GT13 dated 22/07/2009 as well as the commissioning /17/ certificate for the combined cycle Power Plant dated 04/07/2010 which were found to be consistent and thus accepted. The Make and Serial Numbers of the Turbines and Generators were checked during the site visit and the respective details are found to be correctly reported in the MR and thus accepted. Downtime of the plant from 01/11/2012 - 31/10/2013 were checked and found to be consistent with the /19/ shutdown details as reflected in the raw data obtained from the plant and thus CAR03 was closed out.

## 3.2 Post registration changes

There is a post registration change in the form of alteration made to the connection of the gas turbo- generator GT 11 with one of the two metering points i.e. electricity meters located at the grid interface. GT11 has been connected with the metering point 6 at the grid interface along with steam turbo-generator (Gen

10). This alteration in connection to the metering point has been transparently indicated in the schematic
/2.iv/ /1/. diagram presented under Section B.1 of the MR and Figure 4 & A4.1 of the revised PDD

Please refer to the detail discussion made under Section 3.2.4 below.

## 3.2.1 Temporary deviations from Approved revised monitoring plan or applied

_**methodology**_ _/7/_ There are no temporary deviations from the approved revised monitoring plan or the applied methodology identified during the monitoring period.

\[Image: R12\]

3.2.2 Corrections

The following corrections have been made in the revised PDD. The changes are related to the project
information and do not affect the design of the project activity as per the provision of paragraph 1 of the CDM
/6/
Project Standard, ver. 07.

07^{16}

- The name tags on the project gas turbines ‘GT1, GT2 and GT3’ as shown in figures 4 and A4.1 of
  the registered PDD are now corrected as GT13, GT12 and GT11 respectively in the revised PDD as
  per actual situation verified on site.

- Accordingly Section B.7.1 and Table A4.1 under Appendix 5 have also included the editorial change
  in the three gas turbine identification number as GT#11, GT#12 and GT#13 under the description of
  the three respective monitoring parameters FCf,1,y, FCf,2,y and FCf,3,y to be consistent with the revised
  schematic diagram and in line with the tag number of the gas turbines as per actual situation verified
  on site.


\\mathsf{F C} _{\\mathsf{f},1,\\mathsf{y}},,\\mathsf{F C}_{\\mathsf{f},2,\\mathsf{y}}

\\mathsf{F C}\_{\\mathsf{f},3,\\mathsf{y}}

- The name tag of the gas flow metering point at the GT13 inlet has been corrected as “point 3” under
  revised PDD section B.7.1 to make consistent with the description made under Table A4.1 of the
  PDD.

- Under Section C.2.3 the PP has voluntarily added “120 months” to represent the length of the 10
  years crediting period.

- Appendix 1 was revised to include the most up to date contact information of the project participants
  focal contact point.

- Appendix 5: Typographical error for the numbering of the headings of Figure and Table A.4.1 has
  been corrected as A.4.1.


3.2.3 Permanent changes from Approved revised monitoring plan or applied methodology

3.2.4 Changes to project design of registered project activity

/1/
As per the registered PDD, the total electricity generated from the steam turbo-generator (Gen 10) will be
monitored separately and the metering of the electricity generated from the three gas turbo-generators (Gen
11, Gen 12 and Gen 13) combined at the metering locations 6 and 5 respectively installed at grid interface.

The impact of the concerned change in project design has been further assessed in following manner:

- This post registration change does not have any impact on the applicability and application of the
  applied methodology AM0029 version 03 under which the project activity has been registered. The
  applied monitoring methodology only requires continuous monitoring of net electricity export to the
  grid system through energy meters. Thus the change in the connection of one project turbogenerator to the energy meter does not have any impact on the monitoring and monitored data on
  the total net electricity exported to the grid and hence no influence on the emission reduction

However in the actual scenario as verified on site, the electricity generated from Steam Turbo-Generator
(Gen10) and the Gas Turbine GT11 is being monitored by the energy meter located at metering location 6
and the electricity generated by other two Gas Turbines GT12 and GT13 is being monitored by the energy
meter located at metering location 5. There is no change in the metering arrangement at the grid interface i.e.
equipment itself, or the location or the procedure as indicated under registered PDD.

calculation as per the methodological choice as stated under registered PDD and the requirement of
AM0029 version 03.

The change as compared to the description in the registered PDD was occurred actual
implementation and commissioning of the project activity which was prior to the CDM registration of
the project activity. However as per the reporting requirement of the paragraph 325(b) of VVS,
/4/
version 7.0 the assessment team confirms herewith that the changes involved does not impact the
overall operation/ability of the project activity to deliver emission reductions as stated in the
/1/
registered PDD.

7.0^{14}

- The post registration change does not have any effect on the project finances since there will not be
  any change in project revenue due to the electricity sale to the grid. It is confirmed that the actual
  change does not have any impact on the additionality of the project activity, since the project
  additionality has been demonstrated through investment analysis.

- There is no change in capacity or rating of the equipments used in the project and the change is only
  in the power evacuation mode due to which there is no change in scale of the project as well.


Therefore, it has been concluded and confirmed that the nature of the post registration change falls under
/6/
the provision of Paragraph 6 of Appendix 1 of CDM Project Standard, version 07 which does not require
prior approval by the CDM EB.

/1/
The revised PDD is being submitted along with this request for issuance.

It is to be noted that this project was registered under the previous regulatory framework (VVM track), and
therefore, as required by the CDM EB ( [http://cdm.unfccc.int/faq/index.html](http://cdm.unfccc.int/faq/index.html), under heading “How do I request
post-registration changes for my project?”), the information in the registered PDD has been transferred to the
new VVS PDD form. The assessment team confirms that the information included in the new PDD form
under the VVS track is materially the same as the information in the registered PDD.
/1.b/

/1.b/
The revised PDD has in turn included the following changes:

- Section B.4 and Appendix 5 include a revised schematic illustration of the project activity within CDM
  project boundary showing electricity generated from Steam Turbo-Generator (Gen10) and one of the
  Gas Turbine (GT 11) is being monitored by one energy meter (metering location 6) and the electricity
  generated by GT12 and GT13 will be monitored using another energy meter (metering location 5).

- Section B.7.1 has included the revised description for two monitoring parameters related to
  monitoring of electricity generation (EGPJ,5,y and EGPJ,6,y) to synchronise with the changes in
  connection to metering points 5 & 6 at grid interface.


Along with the above stated revisions made to the registered PDD, due to use of the new CDM-PDD-FORM
version 05 the following additions have been also included:

- Section A.1 has added the statement “ Using the methodology and the relevant tools as guides for
  calculating the GHG reductions, the estimated annual GHG reduction is 550,234 tons of CO2, which
  is expected to remain stable over the ten year crediting period. ”.as per the requirement of the VVS
  track template.

Further discussion on CAR04 and relevant conclusion made on this PRC can be referred under Section 9 of
this verification report.

3.2.5 Changes to start date of crediting period

No change in the start date of the crediting period was requested by the PP. The project was registered on
29/10/2012 and the start date of the crediting period is from 01/11/2012 until 31/10/2022. The same was
/1/
checked against the UNFCCC webpage and found consistent and hence is accepted.

3.3 Remaining Issues, CAR’s, FAR’s from Previous Validation or Verification

This is the first periodic verification for the project activity and there are no remaining or pending issues from
/14/
the previous validation process. This fact has been checked with the validation report for the project
activity.

3.4 Completeness and accuracy of Monitoring

3.4.1 Verification of monitoring of parameters

The monitoring of reductions in GHG emissions resulting from the registered project have been implemented
in accordance with the registered monitoring plan. The complete set of data for each applicable monitored
parameter is available for the monitoring period. The monitoring mechanism is complete, effective and
reliable. Each parameter required to be monitored are discussed below.

# Calibration of the electricity meters are not under the control of the PP and under full jurisdiction of the grid authority.

@ The calibration of gas flow meter as done by the equipment manufacturer Elster Instromet is valid for 12 years as per the email from
the manufacturer (German Wohlrab, Application & Systems-Engineering, Electronic Systems, Elster GmbH) dated 08/12/2014.

- The meter bearing the serial no: 10509681-2007 was replaced with the old meter bearing serial no: 10506156-2006 during June 2013
  having the same accuracy class, due to scheduled off-site calibration of the previous meter. The gas flow meter bearing serial no:
  10506156-2006 has been further replaced by the calibrated flow meter with serial no: 10509681-2007 on 31/07/2014 and the other
  meter has sent for off-site calibration. Thus during verification site visit conducted during 29/10/2014- 30/10/2014, SGS audit team has
  inspected the installed gas flow meter with serial no: 10509681-2007.

Discussion of CAR/CLs:

In response, the PP provided the revised PDD and it was found that the electricity evacuation metering is
jointly held by the PP and the Grid Authorities and meters are not under the control of the PP so the project
design change was found to be in line with Appendix 1 of the PS and thus CAR04 was closed out.

3.6 Summary of compliance with the calibration frequency requirements for
measuring instruments.

It was observed during the site visit that all of the above monitoring equipments had missed their calibration
schedule for the entire period of current monitoring (01/11/2012 – 31/10/2013) against the schedule specified
/1/
in the registered PDD.

It can be noted here that the original equipment manufacturer of the gas flow meters, Elster Instromet has
/22/
confirmed vide email dated 08/12/2014 that the initial calibration to be valid for 12 years. Further the PP
does not have control on the calibration of the electric meters which are under the jurisdiction of the Grid
Authorities of Nigeria. The available delayed calibration results showed the equipments under working
conditions within permissible limits. Therefore following the provision of the monitored data adjustment as per
/4/
the stipulated procedure mentioned under paragraph 283(a) of VVS version 7.0, PP has done the data
adjustment in to derive at conservative emission reduction calculation.

7.0^{4/}

The PP has conservatively applied ±2% adjustment to the monitored value as described in the table below
and this approach of data adjustment due to delayed calibration period has ensured that the adjusted
measured values of the delayed calibration has resulted in fewer claimed emission reductions.

PDD has been provided in the MR. The verification team reviewed the comparison of the actual CERs
claimed in the monitoring period with the same estimated in the registered PDD and this has been discussed
in section 3.1 of this report.

In line with Paragraph 290 of VVS version 07.0, it has been ensured that:

1. The data used for the determination of the emission reductions are available and monitored in
   accordance with the registered monitoring plan and the assessment team has cross checked 100%
   of the reported data.

2. Information provided in the monitoring report has been cross-checked with other sources such as
   plant logbooks, inventories, purchase records, laboratory analysis;

3. The appropriate methods and formulae for calculating baseline emissions, project emissions and
   leakage have been properly followed the applied methodology and the registered PDD;

4. All assumptions used in emission calculations have been justified;

5. Each parameter required by the monitoring plan has been discussed in section 3.4 and 3.10 of this
   report.


Discussion of CAR/CLs:

CAR05 was raised due to the following points:

1. Baseline Emissions:

Baseline emissions are calculated by multiplying the electricity generated in the project plant (EGPJ,y) with a
baseline CO2 emission factor (EFBL,CO2,y), as follows:

\ \\mathrm

\\mathrm{C O\_{2}}

(\\mathsf{E F}\_{\\mathsf{B L,C O2,}vee))}

\\begin{array}{l}{{B E\_{y}=E G\_{p J,y}\\cdot E F\_{B L,C O2,y}}}\ {{\\qquad\\qquad\\qquad\\qquad=3,203.991\ (G\\sf{W W})^{\\star,0.0561\ (\ C C\_{2}/G W h)}}}\ {{\\qquad\\qquad\\qquad=1,638,172\ C O\_{2}e}}\\end{array}

2. Project Emissions:

The project activity is on-site combustion of natural gas to generate electricity. The CO2 emissions from
electricity generation (PEy) are calculated as follows:

\\mathrm{{C O\_{2}}}

({\\sf P}{\\sf E}\_{y})

3. Leakage Emissions:

There is no leakage in the project activity as the fugitive emissions from upstream CH4 emissions and CO2
emissions from associated fuel combustion and flaring as they apply to both baseline and project scenario.
Hence leakage is considered as Nil. This was found to be in line with the requirement of the methodology
AM00029 and has been as specified in the registered and revised PDD and thus accepted.

# 5\. Recommendations for Changes in the Monitoring Plan

The registered monitoring plan is in line with the applied approved baseline and the monitoring methodology AM0029, version 3.0. Only due to the alteration made to the connection of respective turbo-generators with the metering points at grid interface, the description of the two monitoring parameters (EGPJ,5,yand EGPJ,6,y\*)\* related electricity generation has been modified under the revised PDD and same is being submitted along with current MP01 RFI as per Appendix 1 of CDM Project Standard.

7. Verification and Certification Statement

SGS United Kingdom Ltd has been contracted by The Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria
Limited to perform the verification of the emission reductions reported for the CDM project “Afam Combined
Cycle Gas Turbine Power Project”, UNFCCC Reference No 5645 in the period 01/11/2012 to 31/10/2013.

The verification is based on the validated and registered project design document and the monitoring report
for this project. The verification is performed in accordance with section I of Decision 3/CMP.1, and relevant
decisions of the CDM EB and CoP/MoP. The scope of this engagement covers the verification and
certification of greenhouse gas emission reductions generated by the above project during the above
mentioned period, as reported in Monitoring Report, Version 05 dated 20/02/2015.

The management of The Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria Limited is responsible for the
preparation, calculation and determination of GHG emission reductions from the project. The development
and maintenance of records and reporting procedures are in accordance with the monitoring report, Version
05 dated 20/02/2015.

It is our responsibility to express an independent GHG verification opinion on the GHG emissions and on the
calculation of GHG emission reductions from the project for the period 01/11/2012 to 31/10/2013 based on
the reported emission reductions in the Monitoring Report Version 05 dated 20/02/2015 for the same period.

Based on an understanding of the risks associated with reporting GHG emissions data and the controls in
place to mitigate these, SGS planned and performed our work to obtain the information and explanations
that we considered necessary to provide sufficient evidence for us to give reasonable assurance that this
reported amount of GHG emission reductions for the period is fairly stated.

SGS confirms that the project is implemented as described in the validated and registered project design
documents. Based on the information we have seen and evaluated, we confirm the following:

1. Following editorial errors in the track change version of (both Public and Confidential) PDD should be corrected:
   a. The strike out “Attachment. Instructions for filling out the project design document form for CDM project activities” as shown from page 79 to 89 should not be shown as per the part of the PDD.
   b. The revised description for EG\_{PJ5,y}$ and $EG\_{PJ6,y}$ has not been shown in track change.
   c. Why the information provided under Section C.2.1 to C.2.3 of the track change public PDD has shown in track change new inclusion since the information was already available in the registered PDD.
2. In the confidential version of the revised PDD, the numbering of Appendix from “Appendix 2” is found to be inconsistent with the large scale PDD template, ver.05.
3. Revised PDD (Appendix 6 to public version and Appendix 7(!) to confidential version): The description mentioned as summary of post registration change not entirely clear on the applicability of CDM PS Appendix 1 Para 5a. Since it has not transparently clarified the jurisdiction and extent of control on behalf of the PP related to such alterations of the connection to the metering points (5 & 6) at the grid interface.

|  | accepted. “EF | sheet accordingly and thus accepted. The Sheet R-C: C\_Content was checked and now match for the period of Nov-12 to Aug-13 and thus Parameters EG & EG PJ,5,y PJ,6,y thus accepted. PP revised the Sheet CAL and included details on Meter change for flow meter at GT-12 in section D.2 in the MR also calibration for the flow meter were correctly mentioned in line with the registered PDD and revised PDD and thus accepted. Details regarding calibration for the Gas Chromatograph were found to be consistent and thus accepted.. The metering point for tariff meter were found to be consistent with the metering point diagram 5 and 6 provided in MR section C and thus accepted. Sheet M-M was found to consistently reporting the delay in calibration and thus accepted.. Source of COEF was clearly stated in the Sheet FIX and thus accepted. BL The Sheet MR01 (2012) & MR01 has now been revised accordingly to MP01 (2012) and MP01. Sheet MP01 comprehensively shows the actual emission reduction achieved during the monitoring period (1/11/2012- 31/10/2013) while Sheet MP01 (2012) represents the emission reduction achieved during the monitoring period (1/11/2012-31/12/2012) and also for the period (1/01/2013-31/10/2013). The formula has now been adjusted to fit properly in ER sheet. This was found to be consistent and thus accepted. Section B.2.4: The description made is not found justified; please explain how the matter can be described as project design change with reference to the Paragraph 280 of CDM PS ver.07. Please categorise the exact nature of post registration change as per the guideline outlined under Section 18.3 of CDM PS ver.07. It is also not clarified the jurisdiction and extent of control on behalf of the PP related to such alterations of the connection to the metering points (5 & 6) at the grid interface. Section C states that, for baseline emissions calculation COEF registered PDD and applied methodology EF BL,CO2,y explain whether the parameter COEF BL Section D.2: Please explain the correlation and parity on choice of data for the parameters “NCV CO2,f,y | are actually two parameters and they were found to be reported separately and has been monitored, however as per the BL (0.511 tCO /MWh) has been fixed ex-ante. Thus please 2 has been further monitored during current monitoring period. ” and f,y ” as reported in the MR against the requirement set in the Methodology “annual estimation based on |  |

|  | a b c d | supplier-provided data, local data, country-specific values, that order of preference. ” Section D.2: The description related to delay in calibration for four natural gas flow meters and two electricity meters involved, it has been reported that the monitored data adjustment has been done as per Para. 283 of VVS ver. 07, however it has been not transparently clarified whether the results of delayed calibration are available. Please clarify the correctness of the data adjustment approach as per the two provisions stated under Para. 283 of VVS ver. 07. Acceptance and Close out by Lead Assessor: Open Project Participant Response: Section B2.4: The PP revised section B2.4 in the MR version 02 dated 10/11/2014 as requested by the DOE. Nevertheless, the change in the connection of the electricity meters to the turbine generators does not describe the nature and extent of the actual changes as listed in clauses in the Paragraph 280 of CDM PS ver.07 and section 13.8.3.4 as shown table below: Clauses in PP 280 (Section 13.8.3.4) Changes in the effective output capacity due to increased installed capacity or increased number of units, or installation of units with lower capacity or units with a technology which is less advanced than that described in the PDD; Addition of component or extension of technology; Removal or addition of one site (or more) of a project activity registered with multiple-sites Actual operational parameters which are within the control of project participants differing from the expected parameters; | Date: 04/12/2014 Date: 04/12/2014 Justification The Installed capacity of the power plant remains unchanged as evident during the DOE site visit. There is no addition of component or extension to technology described in the registered PDD. No site is added nor removed from the project activity registered in the PDD. The operational Parameters are same as those registered in the PDD. However, the referred parameters (EG and EG are not within the PJ,5,y PJ,6,y) control of the PP. |  |

| --- | --- | --- |
| In Version 1 of the MR, the PP did not identify the meter connections as a permanent deviation as it does not impact any of the 5 conditions listed above. |  |  |
| Section C: Section C of the MR has been revised and now agrees with the registered PDD and applied methodology on EFBLCO2,y |  |  |
| Section D.2: The “NCV1,y” and “EFCO2,y” as reported in the MR by the Project participant are in conformance with the PDD and in line with the AM0029 version 03 methodology applied for this project activity. The NCV and EF values were based on the records of gas analysis from the Gas chromatograph of the Gas Supplier which in this case is same as the project participant. |  |  |
| Section D.2: The Project participant will like to note that in accordance with the manufacturer's specification and recommendation for calibration life of the flow meters stated as 12 years, the flow meters are in-calibration but the PP has adjusted the values obtained with respect to missing the calibration frequency stated as per the PDD and this is considered conservative. The penalty is only taken to conform to CDM rules and not for any technical cause of the meters being out of calibration.The calibration of the electricity meters are out of the control of the Project Participants as they are under the control of the Transmission Company of Nigeria. |  |  |

| The justification for the PRC was found to be contradicting with the response in the MR. The PP has mentioned in MR section B.2.3 about PRC however in the FO response has mentioned that the case is not a PRC.PP has to clarify in this regard.Section C was found to be corrected and found to be justified and thus accepted.Section D.2 was found to be correctly reporting the aspect of NCV,f,y and EFco2,f,y which was found to be in line with the methodology and hence accepted.Section D.2 was further checked with regard to the calibration and the calibration frequency of the manufacturer was found to be justified at 12years based on the email from manufacturer Elster Electronic Support on 08/12/2014 written to the PP.The calibration was found to be active at the time of verification as per the manufacturer specification although the PDD mentions the frequency as 6months.Further the PP was found to be conservatively applying the error % for the period of verification and thus was found justified and hence accepted. |  |  |
