SECTION A. General description of project activity
A.1. Title of the project activity:
Title: 20 MW Roura- II Hydro Electric Project by Roura Non Conventional Energy Pvt Ltd
Version: 03
Date: 12/12/2012
A.2. Description of the project activity:
The project activity is a run of river hydro power project on Roura Khad stream located near Village
Yula, Himachal Pradesh, India The project activity will reduce the GHG emission by use of a clean,
renewable (hydro power) source for electricity generation. The project activity will reduce the
dependence on fossil fuel of the integrated NEWNE grid which is dominated by emission intensive fossil
fuel based thermal power plants. The project activity will replace equivalent amount of electricity in the
grid which is majorly fossil fuel based electricity generation. The project is expected to be commissioned
by July 2014. The generated electricity by the project will be supplied to Punjab State Grid through HP
State Grid.
Purpose of the Project
The project will serve the purpose of producing clean electrical energy in a sustainable manner. The
project comprises of 3 units of 6.67 MW each, aggregating to a capacity of 20 MW. The project activity
utilizes hydro power for generation of electricity. The technology consists of conversion of the kinetic
energy available in the water flow to mechanical energy using a hydro turbine and by connecting to a
generator, mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy, which will utilize kinetic energy arising
out of the downstream riparian movement for power generation. Thus, no fossil fuels are involved for
power generation in the project activity. The proposed project activity will, consequently, reduce the
anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, which, otherwise, would have resulted
from business-as-usual operation of existing/additional fossil fuels-based power plant for the production
of equivalent amount of electricity. The project activity, thus, helps in exploiting the hydro potential,
thereby, leading to a cleaner environment -- through lower greenhouse gas emissions and other pollutants-
- and greater energy security of the nation through lower fuel consumption, fossil fuel conservation for
other activities. The project activity will generate 92460 MWh net electricity per annum resulting
emission reduction of 85,193 tCO2/year.
Pre-project Scenario: No project activity
The proposed project activity is a greenfield project, which means no power generation facility existed at
the project site in the pre-project scenario. Hence, absence of any project activity is a befitting pre-project
scenario at project site; however, export of equivalent amount of electricity into the grid, predominantly
by the existing fossil fuel-based power projects would serve as the business-as-usual scenario.
Baseline Scenario:
The electricity produced by the project activity will be supplied to Punjab State Grid through HP State
Grid, which lies in NEWNE regional grid as prescribed by Central Electricity Authority (CEA), country's
apex power sector planning body, under the federal government of India. The project activity will partly
displace electricity being fed into this regional grid, which is dominated by fossil fuel-fired power plants,
page 3
thereby precluding the emission of greenhouse gases (GHGs) that would resulted in the absence of this
renewable energy-based power project activity. Hence, NEWNE regional grid has been considered for
baseline emission calculations for the proposed project activity.
Evidently, the pre-project scenario is same as the baseline scenario
Contribution of the project activity to sustainable development
Ministry of Environment and Forests, Govt. of India has specified the social well being , economic well
being, environmental well being and technological well being as the four indicators for sustainable
development in the interim approval guidelines of host country approval eligibility criteria for Clean
Development Mechanism( CDM ) Projects .
Social Well Being
The project activity will generate many direct and indirect employment opportunities.
 Contribution to the development of an otherwise underdeveloped area.
 Generation of employment opportunities for local people during various phases of the project
activity.
Economical well being:
 Creation of business opportunities for local stakeholders such as equipment manufacturers,

suppliers, contractors and other vendors.
 Reduction in the load on the national grid by using local renewable source for generating power.
Environmental well being:
 Since, the project uses renewable hydro resources for power generation it does not lead to any
emissions in the environment.
 Avoiding further depletion of the already over-exploited, limited non-renewable sources like coal,
oil, etc.
Technological well being:
 The technology selected for the power project would use well established Horizontal Pelton type
turbines and the project activity would promote the use of such technology

A.4.2. Category(ies) of project activity:
The project activity is renewable electricity generation from a 20MW hydro electric power plant. Thus
the applicable category of the project activity is as follows:-
Scope number: 1
Sectoral Scope: Energy Industries- Renewable/ Non renewable source
A.4.3. Technology to be employed by the project activity:
The project is a Small Hydro Power plant designed to generate clean electricity for Grid using available
water resources. The project activity being a Greenfield project, no power generation facility existed in
the pre-project scenario. The project activity is expected to be commissioned in July 2014.
Essentially, the project comprises of 3 units of 6.67 MW each, aggregating to a capacity of 20 MW. The
project activity utilizes hydro power for generation of electricity. The technology consists of conversion
of the kinetic energy available in the water flow to mechanical energy using a hydro turbine and by
connecting to a generator, mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy. In this process there is
no burning of any fossil fuels and hence no emissions. Thus electricity is generated through sustainable
means without causing any negative effect on the environment. The generated power will be evacuated
through the 66 kV transmission line which will be connected to the grid of HPSEB at Karcham Sub-
Station.
The proposed project activity is a greenfield project, which means no power generation facility existed at
the project site in the pre-project scenario. Hence, absence of any project activity is a befitting pre-project
scenario at project site; however, export of equivalent amount of electricity into the grid, predominantly
by the existing fossil fuel-based power projects would serve as the business-as-usual scenario.
Baseline Scenario:
The electricity produced by the project activity will be supplied to Punjab State Grid through HP State
Grid, which lies in NEWNE regional grid as prescribed by Central Electricity Authority (CEA), country's
apex power sector planning body, under the federal government of India. The project activity will partly
displace electricity being fed into this regional grid, which is dominated by fossil fuel-fired power plants,
thereby precluding the emission of greenhouse gases (GHGs) that would resulted in the absence of this
renewable energy-based power project activity. Hence, NEWNE regional grid has been considered for
baseline emission calculations for the proposed project activity.
There are neither any emission sources nor any gases included for the project activity, as explained in
Section B.6.1.
The major components involved in the project are diversion cum trench weir, intake structure, headrace
tunnel, desilting basin, penstock, surge shaft, power house housing 3 turbine-generator sets and tailrace
channel for discharging water back into river.

B.4. Description of how the baseline scenario is identified and description of the identified
baseline scenario:
page 13
According to Section II of ACM0002, Version 13.0.0, if the project activity is the installation of a new
grid-connected renewable power plant/unit, the baseline scenario is the following:
Electricity delivered to the grid by the project activity would have otherwise been generated by the
operation of grid-connected power plants and by the addition of new generation sources, as reflected in
the combined margin (CM) calculations described in the “Tool to calculate the emission factor for an
electricity system”.
Since the project activity is the installation of a new grid-connected renewable power plant, run of the
river hydro power project, the baseline would be the electricity delivered to the grid that would have been
otherwise generated by the operation of grid-connected power plants.
Baseline emissions
Baseline emissions include only CO2 emissions from electricity generation in fossil fuel fired power
plants that are displaced due to the project activity. The methodology assumes that all project electricity
generation above baseline levels would have been generated by existing grid-connected power plants and
the addition of new grid-connected power plants. The baseline emissions are to be calculated as follows:
BE y  EG PJ,y  EFgrid,CM, y
Where:
BEy = Baseline emissions in year y (tCO2)

EGPJ,y = Quantity of net electricity generation that is produced and fed into the grid as a result
of the implementation of the CDM project activity in year y (MWh)
EFgrid,CM,y = Combined margin CO2 emission factor for grid connected power generation in year y
calculated using the latest version of the “Tool to calculate the emission factor for an
electricity system” (tCO2/MWh)
The baseline emission factor (EFgrid,CM,y) is calculated as a combined margin (CM), consisting of the
combination of operating margin (OM) and build margin (BM) factors calculated according to the
version 02.2.1 of “Tool to calculate the emission factor for an electricity system”, using the following
six steps:
STEP 1. Identify the relevant electricity systems;

STEP 2. Choose whether to include off-grid power plants in the project electricity system (optional);
STEP 3. Select a method to determine the operating margin (OM);
STEP 4. Calculate the operating margin emission factor according to the selected method;
STEP 5. Calculate the build margin (BM) emission factor;
STEP 6. Calculate the combined margin (CM) emission factor.
STEP 1. Identify the relevant electricity systems:
The tool defines the project electricity system as the spatial extent of the power plants that are
physically connected through transmission and distribution lines to the project activity and that can be
dispatched without significant transmission constraints. Keeping this into consideration, the Central
Electricity Authority (CEA), Government of India has divided the Indian electricity system into two
page 14
regional grids, viz. NEWNE and Southern grid. Each grid covers several states (see table below).
NEWNE Grid Southern Grid

Northern Western Eastern North - Eastern Southern
Chandigarh Chhatisgarh Bihar Arunachal Pradesh Andhra Pradesh
Delhi Gujarat Jharkhand Assam Karnataka
Haryana Daman & Diu Orissa Manipur Kerala
Dadar & Nagar
Himachal Pradesh West Bengal Meghalaya Tamil Nadu
Haveli
Jammu & Kashmir Madhya Pradesh Sikkim Mizoram Pondicherry
Punjab Maharashtra Andaman - Nicobar Nagaland Lakshadweep
Rajasthan Goa Tripura
Uttar Pradesh
Uttranchal
As the regional grids are interconnected, there is inter-state and inter-regional exchange. A small power
exchange also takes place with neighboring countries like Bhutan and Nepal. Power generation and
supply within the regional grid is managed by Regional Load Dispatch Centre (RLDC). The Regional
Power Committees (RPCs) provide a common platform for discussion and solution to the regional
problems relating to the grid. Each state in a regional grid meets its demand with its own generation
facilities and also with allocation from power plants owned by the Central Sector such as NTPC and
NHPC etc. Specific quotas are allocated to each state from the Central Sector power plants. Depending on
the demand and generation, there are electricity exports and imports between states in the regional grid.
The regional grid thus represents the largest electricity grid where power plants can be dispatched without
significant constraints and thus, represents the “project electricity system” for the project activity. As the
project activity is connected to the NEWNE regional electricity grid, the NEWNE grid is the “connected
electricity system”.
STEP 2. Choose whether to include off grid power plants in the project electrical system:
Project Participants may choose between the following two options to calculate the operating margin
and built margin:
Option I: Only grid power plants are included in the calculation

Option II: Both grid power plants and off-grid power plants are included in the calculations.
Option II requires collecting data on off-grid power generation. Off grid data is not available publically;
Therefore Project Participants have opted for option I.
page 15
STEP 3. Select a method to determine the operating margin (OM) method.
The calculation of the operating margin emission factor (EFOM,y) is based on one of the following
methods:
(a) Simple OM, or
(b) Simple adjusted OM, or
(c) Dispatch data analysis OM, or
(d) Average OM.
The simple OM method (Option a) can only be used if low-cost/must-run resources constitute less than
50% of total grid generation in: 1) average of the five most recent years, or 2) based on long-term
averages for hydroelectricity production.
Share of Must-Run (Hydro/Nuclear) (% of Net Generation)

Year 2005-06 2006-07 2007-08 2008-09 2009-10 2010-11
NEWNE 18.0% 18.5% 19.0% 17.4% 15.9% 17.6%
South 27.0% 28.3% 27.1% 22.8% 20.6% 21.0%
India 20.1% 20.9% 21.0% 18.7% 17.1% 18.4%
Reference: Baseline Carbon Dioxide Emission Database Version 7.07
The above data clearly shows that the percentage of total grid generation by low cost/must run plants (on
the basis of average of five most recent years) for the NEWNE and Southern grids are less than 50 % of
the total generation. Thus, simple OM method (Option a) has been used to calculate the operating margin
emission factor (EFOM,y).
The “Simple operating margin” has been calculated as per the weighted average emissions (in
tCO2e/MWh) of all generating sources serving the system, excluding hydro, geo-thermal, wind, low-cost
biomass, nuclear and solar generation. The data has been sourced from Baseline Carbon Dioxide
Emission Database Version 7.0, published by the Central Electricity Authority, which is India's apex
power sector planning body, under the federal government of India.
In the project activity, the PP has chosen the an ex ante option for calculation of the OM with the full
generation-weighted average for the most recent 3 years, based on most recent data available at the time
of submission of CDM PDD to the DOE for validation, without requirement to monitor and recalculate
the emission factor during the crediting period. It is, therefore, confirmed that ex-ante vintage is
considered in the project activity and cannot be changed during the crediting period.

page 16
STEP 4. Calculate the operating margin emission factor according to the selected method.
The simple OM emission factor is calculated as the generation-weighted average CO2 emissions per
unit net electricity generation (tCO2/MWh) of all generating power plants serving the system, not
including low-cost / must-run power plants / units. It may be calculated as:
Option A: Based on the net electricity generation and a CO2 emission factor of each power unit; or
Option B: Based on the total net electricity generation of all power plants serving the system and the
fuel types and total fuel consumption of the project electricity system.
Option B can only be used if:
(a) The necessary data for Option A is not available; and
(b) Only nuclear and renewable power generation are considered as low-cost/must-run power sources
and the quantity of electricity supplied to the grid by these sources is known; and
(c) Off-grid power plants are not included in the calculation (i.e., if Option I has been chosen in Step 2)
CEA data base has been prepared based on Option A.
The operating margin emission factor has been calculated using a 3 year data vintage (latest available at
the time of PDD submission for the validation) as follows:
Net Generation in Operating Margin (MWh) (Source: CEA database version 7)
Year MWh (NEWNE Grid)

2008-2009 421802632.89
2009-2010 458043084.55
2010-2011 476986721.34
Simple Operating Margin (tCO2/MWh) (incl. Imports) (Source: CEA database version 7)
Year tCO2/MWh (NEWNE Grid)

2008-2009 1.0065
2009-2010 0.9777
2010-2011 0.9706
Simple Operating Margin = Generation weighted average of the simple operating Margin
=((1.0065 * 421802632.89) + ( 0.9777 * 458043084.55) + (0.9706 *
476986721.34)) / (421802632.89 + 458043084.55 + 476986721.34)
= 0.9842 (tCO2/MWh)
page 17
STEP 5. Calculate the build margin emission factor (EFgrid, BM, y)
In terms of vintage of data, project participants can choose between one of the following two options:
Option 1:
For the first crediting period, calculate the build margin emission factor ex ante based on the most recent
information available on units already built for sample group m at the time of CDM-PDD submission to
the DOE for validation. For the second crediting period, the build margin emission factor should be
updated based on the most recent information available on units already built at the time of submission of
the request for renewal of the crediting period to the DOE. For the third crediting period, the build margin
emission factor calculated for the second crediting period should be used. This option does not require
monitoring the emission factor during the crediting period.
Option 2:
For the first crediting period, the build margin emission factor shall be updated annually, ex post,
including those units built up to the year of registration of the project activity or, if information up to the
year of registration is not yet available, including those units built up to the latest year for which
information is available. For the second crediting period, the build margin emissions factor shall be
calculated ex ante, as described in Option 1 above. For the third crediting period, the build margin
emission factor calculated for the second crediting period should be used.
The project participants have chosen option-1 for vintage of the data.
The sample group of power units m used to calculate the build margin consists of either:
(a) The set of five power units that have been developed most recently; or
(b) The set of power capacity additions in the electricity system that comprise 20% of the system
generation (in MWh) and that have been built most recently.
According to the CEA Baseline Database, for this project, the sample group of power units m used to
calculate the build margin consists of the set of power capacity additions in the electricity system that
comprise 20% of the system generation (in MWh) and that have been built most recently. The CEA
Baseline Database Version 7 has been calculated as per" Tool to calculate the emission factor for an
electricity system" Version 2.2.1 and the details of the key assumptions considered to calculate the figure
can be found in the User Guide of the same.
The Build Margin (BM) emissions factor is the generation-weighted average emission factor
(tCO2/MWh) of all power units m during the most recent year y for which power generation data is
available, calculated as follows:
page 18
EFgrid, BM, y = ∑mEGm,y x EFEL,m,y / ∑m EGm,y
Where,
EFgrid, BM,y = Build Margin CO2 Emission Factor in year y (tCO2e/MWh).
EGm, y = Net quantity of electricity generated and delivered to the grid by power unit m in
year y (MWh)
EFEL, m,y = CO2 emission factor of power unit m in year y (tCO2 e /MWh)
m = Power units included in the build margin
y = Most recent historical year for which power generation data is available
As per the CEA CO2 Baseline Database Version 7, the BM for the 2010-11 has been calculated to be:
Grid 2010-11
NEWNE 0.8587
Build Margin (tCO2e/MWh) for NEWNE8 = 0.8587
STEP 6. Calculate the combined margin (CM) emissions factor
The calculation of the combined margin (CM) emission factor (EFgrid,CM,y) is based on one of the
following methods:
(a) Weighted average CM; or

(b) Simplified CM.
Since the weighted average CM method (option a) should be used as the preferred option, PP has chosen
this method to calculate combined margin emission factor.
As per this method, the combined margin emissions factor, CM, can be calculated as:
EFgrid, CM, y = EFgrid, OM, y x WOM + EFgrid, BM, y x WBM
Where:
EFgrid, BM, y = Build Margin CO2 emission factor in the year y (tCO2/MWh)
EFgrid, OM, y = Operating Margin CO2 emission factor in the year y (tCO2/MWh)
WOM = Weighting of operating margin emission factor (%)
WBM = Weighting of build margin emission factor (%)
8
page 19
As per the Tool, the default values for hydro projects are as follows:
WOM = 50% and WBM = 50%.
In the project activity, combined margin has been chosen as the baseline emission factor for grid
emission factor. The value chosen is taken from relevant official sources and is publicly available9.
Parameter Value10 (tCO2/MWh)
Operating Margin Emission Factor (EFgrid,OM,y ) 0.9842
Build Margin Emission Factor (EFgrid,BM,y ) 0.8587
Combined Margin Emission Factor (EFgrid,CM,y ) 0.9214
Thus, the Combined Margin Emission Factor (EFgrid,CM, y) for the project has been calculated to be EFgrid,
CM, y = 0.9214 tCO2/MWh and is fixed ex-ante for the entire crediting period.
B.5. Description of how the anthropogenic emissions of GHG by sources are reduced below
those that would have occurred in the absence of the registered CDM project activity (assessment
and demonstration of additionality):
The project activity is construction and operation of a hydro electric power plant. In absence of the
project activity, the equivalent amount of electricity would have been generated in the existing and future
power plants in the NEWNE grid. Thus, the project activity avoids the emission of equivalent amount of
GHGs associated with the current fuel mix in the grid.

The project activity is not yet started. CDM validation has started before the starting date of the project
as the CDM registration is a major criterion for approval12.
Additionality:
As required by the approved methodology, the additionality of the project activity shall be
demonstrated and assessed using the latest version of the Tool for the demonstration and assessment
of additionality, Version 07.0.013 EB 70, Annex 08.
According to the "Tool for the demonstration and assessment of additionality, Version 07.0.0”
the steps that need to be followed to determine the additionality:
Step 0: Demonstration whether the proposed project activity is the first-of-its-kind;
Proposed project activity is not the first-of-its-kind project.
Step 1: Identification of alternatives to the project activity consistent with current laws and regulations
Sub-step la: Define alternatives to the project activity:
In this step all the realistic and credible alternative(s) available to the project participants or similar
project developers that provide outputs or services comparable with the proposed CDM project
activity need to be identified.
Since identified methodology ACM0002 prescribes baseline, following plausible alternatives to the
project activity are identified.
1. The proposed project activity not undertaken as a CDM project activity:
Construction of a new renewable run of river hydroelectric project connected to the grid,
12

page 21
implemented without considering CDM revenues.

This alternative is in compliance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements and may be a
part of the baseline. However, in absence of CDM revenue it would have been difficult for the
project proponent to implement the project activity on account financial unviability (please refer to
Step 2: Investment Analysis in the following section for details). Hence it cannot be a part of the
baseline scenario.
2. Continuation of power generation in existing and new grid connected thermal power stations:
In this alternative the project activity would not have been implemented and an equivalent amount
of energy (power) would have been produced by the project grid electricity system through its
currently running power plants and by new capacity addition to the grid i.e. Continuation of current
situation.
Outcome of Step 1a: Both alternatives identified are studied further.
Sub-step 1b: Consistency with mandatory laws and regulations:
The implementation of project activity is a voluntary initiative and it is not mandatory or a

legal requirement. For power generation, the Electricity Act 2003 does not restrict or empower any
authority to restrict the fuel choice, the applicable environmental regulations do not restrict the use of
hydro energy and there is no legal requirement on the choice of a particular technology.
Outcome of Step 1b: Thus, both the alternatives are in line with the applicable legal and regulatory
requirements. These are studied further.
Step 2: Investment analysis
Sub-step 2a: Determine appropriate analysis method

This step requires the project proponent to determine the financial analysis method that needs to be
applied to carry out the investment analysis for the feasibility of the project activity. The options
available with the project proponent include:
1. Simple Cost Analysis

2. Investment Comparison Analysis
3. Benchmark Analysis
The option chosen to prove additionality is Option III – “Benchmark Analysis”, as the only plausible
investment decision for Roura Non Conventional Energy Pvt. Ltd. is whether or not to develop the
proposed project activity.
Sub-step 2b: Option III. Apply benchmark analysis
As per the Guidance on the Assessment of Investment Analysis, Version 05, EB62, Annex 514 “In cases
where a benchmark approach is used the applied benchmark shall be appropriate to the type of IRR
calculated. Local commercial lending rates or weighted average costs of capital (WACC) are
14
http://cdm.unfccc.int/Reference/Guidclarif/reg/reg_guid03.pdf
page 22
appropriate benchmarks for a project IRR. Required/expected returns on equity are appropriate
benchmarks for equity IRR. Benchmarks supplied by relevant national authorities are also appropriate
if the DOE can validate that they are applicable to the project activity and the type of IRR calculation
presented”.
Moreover, Guidance 13 of this Annex states that, "In the cases of projects which could be developed by
an entity other than the project participant the benchmark should be based on parameters that are
standard in the market." Since such projects could also be developed by entities other than the PP,
benchmark has been calculated using parameters standard in the market.
Now, as per Guidance 15 of this Annex, “If the benchmark is based on parameters that are standard in
the market, the cost of equity should be determined either by: (a) selecting the values provided in
Appendix A; or by (b) calculating the cost of equity using best financial practices, based on data
sources which can be clearly validated by the DOE, while properly justifying all underlying factors”.
Notably, the guideline on using default values for calculating cost of equity were introduced in July
2010, while the decision making date of the current project activity is August 2011; hence, PP has
calculated the cost of equity on the basis of option (a), by selecting the values provided in Appendix A.
The proposed project activity falls under Group 1 category, mentioned in paragraph 5 of this Appendix.
The default cost of equity (real) for Indian Group I projects is 11.75%. However, as per paragraph 7 of
the Appendix A “In situations where an investment analysis is carried out in nominal terms, project
participants can convert the real term values provided in the table below to nominal values by adding
the inflation rate. The inflation rate shall be obtained from the inflation forecast of the central bank of
the host country for the duration of the crediting period.”
As the analysis has been carried out in nominal terms, the default value of expected return on equity
(given in real terms in EB 62 Annex 13) has been adjusted with the inflation. For this purpose, a 10-year
inflation forecast of 5.4%15 by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), the country’s central bank, has been
used, as the above guideline states that the inflation rate shall be obtained from the inflation forecast of
the central bank of the host country for the duration of the crediting period.
The cost of equity has been calculated using Fisher's equation16as follows:
Nominal return = {(1+ real return)*(1+expected inflation rate) – 1}

= {(1+11.75%)*(1+5.4%) – 1}
= 17.78%
The benchmark, therefore, works out to be 12.76%, which has been tabulated below:

An investment analysis of the project activity was conducted considering the Project IRR (post-tax) as
the most suitable financial indicator. The project IRR of the project activity has been computed over a
period of 20 years as 7.72% and then compared against the benchmark return of 12.76%.
Sub-step 2c: Calculation and comparison of financial indicators:
IRR is the most common financial indicator used by bankers as well as investors to check the financial
viability of the project. The Project IRR (post-tax) has been computed by taking into account the ash
outflows (capital investment in the project) and cash inflows comprising profit after tax, depreciation,
interest on term loan and salvage value (in the terminal year). The Project IRR is compared with local
commercial lending rates to prove that the proposed CDM project activity is unlikely to be financially
attractive without CER revenue.

Roura Non Conventional Energy Pvt. Ltd intends to sell the generated power outside the state of
Himachal Pradesh i.e. to Punjab (PSEB). In India any IPP/Generator who intends to sell power outside
the state has to pay following charges and losses of the intervening transmission systems.
i) Transmission charges and losses of intra-state grid i.e. HPSEB/HPTCL grid in which the generator is
located.
ii) SLDC/Operating Charges of intra-state grid i.e. HPSEB/HPTCL grid
iii) Inter-state transmission charges of inter-state grid i.e. CTU grid.

Sub-step 2d: Sensitivity analysis:
A sensitivity analysis has been carried out to provide an analysis of variations in important parameters
affecting the project financially, and their impact on the project IRR. The results of the analysis for both
the project participants are as mentioned in table below:
IRR w/o
Parameter Increase 10% Decrease 10% Benchmark
CDM
Project Cost 8.58% 12.16%
Net generation 11.76% 8.63%
10.26% 12.76%
Tariff 11.76% 8.63%
O&M Cost 9.93% 10.56%
As evident from the table above, the Project IRR is unable to cross the benchmark even with a 10%
increase in the gross generation or tariff or with a 10 % reduction in the project cost or O &M cost.
Outcome of Step 2
The project activity has lower returns than the conservative benchmark returns calculated at the time of
investment decision. Even the 10% increase or decrease in the important parameters that affects the
returns on the project does not make project financially viable in the absence of the CDM revenue.
Thus, the CDM revenue is critical for the financial viability of the project activity.
Step 3: Barrier Analysis
According to the “Tool for the demonstration and assessment of additionality, Version 07.0.0”, Project
participants can use either investment analysis or barrier analysis step. Therefore, PP has chosen
investment analysis.
Step 4: Common Practice analysis
The Project is a newly built hydropower generation project connected with Grid, which belongs to
measures that are listed in paragraph 6: (b) Switch of technology with or without change of energy source
(including energy efficiency improvement as well as use of renewable energies) of the Methodological
tool “Demonstration and assessment of additionality” Version 07.0.0., therefore we are proceeding to
Sub-step 4a.
Sub-step 4a: The proposed CDM project activity(ies) applies measure(s) that are listed in the
definitions section above:
21
http://www.cercind.gov.in/2011/June/sigend_Order_on_POC_29.6.2011.pdf
22
http://www.cercind.gov.in/2011/June/sigend_Order_on_POC_29.6.2011.pdf
page 27
Common practice analysis has been carried out as per the latest version of the “Guidelines on common
practice” Version 02, EB 69 Annex 8. The step by step approach of the common practice analysis is
illustrated below:
I. Definition
1. Applicable Geographical area covers entire host country as a default. As per the guidelines host
country i.e. India is considered as the applicable geographical area.
2. Measure (for emission reduction activity): Project activity falls under the option 6 (b) of the measures
i.e. switch of technology with or without change of energy source.
3. Output: Goods or services with comparable quality, properties and application areas. As per the
definition “electricity”, which is a service, is considered as output of the project activity.
4. Different technologies: As per guidelines technologies that deliver same output (i.e. electricity) and
differ by following conditions are considered as different technology for the common practice analysis:
Since the Tool provides five alternatives to distinguish the technologies, out which atleast one should be
used, PP has chosen the investment climate in the date of the investment decision (option d) to establish
the common practice analysis.
II. Stepwise approach to common practice analysis
Step 1: Calculate applicable output range as +/-50% of the design output or capacity of the proposed
project activity.
The installed capacity of the Project is 20 MW. As a result, projects between 10 MW and 30 MW are
defined as the applicable output range for common practice analysis.
Step 2: In the applicable geographical area, identify all plants that deliver the same output or capacity,
within the applicable output range calculated in Step 1, as the proposed project activity and have started
commercial operation before the start date of the project. Note their number Nall.. Registered CDM
project activities and projects activities undergoing validation shall not be included in this step.
As per para 1 of EB 69, Annex 8 applicable geographical area covers the entire host country as default,
therefore PP has chosen the entire host country “India” as applicable geographical area.
Proposed project activity is still in planning stage; the expected start date is January 2012. Project design
document (PDD) had been published for global stakeholder consultation on 17 April 2012, before the
project activity start date Thus, power generation projects started commercial operation before April,
2012 need to be considered.
All plants that deliver the same output or capacity within the applicable output range calculated in Step 1
(10MW – 30MW) have been listed in Appendix-1. They are numbered at 234. However, this database is
updated with data latest till March 31, 2011. During 2011-2012, the total hydro-based capacity addition
was pegged at 1423 MW23. Out of the addition, not even a single plant matched our capacity range.
23
http://www.cea.nic.in/reports/monthly/executive_rep/mar12/19-25.pdf
page 28
Thereafter, hydro capacity additions in the same small scale range, during the same period, were
analysed. It was observed from the CEA monthly reports24 that there were increments in the Renewable
Energy Sources (RES), which include biomass, wind solar and small hydro, among others, no capacity
addition was observed for the small-scale hydro power projects.
In effect, Nall = 234 (As per CEA database Version 7 Baseline Carbon Dioxide Emission Database
Version 7.0 – LATEST).
Step 3: Within plants identified in Step 2, identify those that apply technologies different that the
technology applied in the proposed project activity. Note their number Ndiff.
It should be noted that Electricity Act, 200325 was a landmark legislation in India that aimed at
transforming the country's power sector. More precisely, the Act is a move towards creating a market-
based regime in the Indian power sector and consolidates the laws relating to generation, transmission,
distribution, trading and use of electricity. The Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) being
the principle regulator in the Electricity Sector took the lead in moving forward to implement the various
provisions of the new Law in letter and spirit. Keeping the spirit of the Act, the Commission has
emphasized the need to move away from the cost plus regulatory regime to a new regime of lighter
regulation. With this in mind, first ever tariff regulations were unveiled by CERC in April 200426, which
effectively regulated the prices of the power projects in the country, thus, altering the investment climate
altogether. This is because in the period prior to 2003, tariff were considered on project-to-project basis,
whereas a blanked approach was followed by CERC in its detailed procedure to compute tariff based on
capital cost, depreciation, income tax, interest rate etc. As a result, the investment environment of power
production projects in the Host Country changed significantly in 2003, and projects developed before
2003 cannot be considered similar to the proposed Project.” The aforesaid can be categorized under
“different investment climate at the time of investment decision” as per the latest version of the
“Guidelines on common practice” Version 02, EB 69 Annex 8.
According to Definitions of Different Technologies, the projects commissioned before April 2004 can be
considered as applying technologies different that the technology applied in the proposed project activity.
Such plants are numbered at 228. Now, out of the remaining 6 plants (234-228), 2 plants are of capacity
10 MW each while another 2 plants have a capacity of 15 MW each. These 4 plants can, therefore, be
categorized into small scale power plants as per their size of installation, in line with para 4 (c) (ii) of the
EB 69, Annex 8. Thus, we conclude that the total number of plants that can be accounted under different
technologies are 232 (228+4). Thus, Ndiff = 232
Step 4: Calculate factor F=1-Ndiff/Nall representing the share of plants using technology similar to the
technology used in the proposed project activity in all plants that deliver the same output or capacity as
the proposed project activity.
Now, F = 1- Ndiff/Nall
= 1- (232/234) = 0.008

page 29
and,
Nall - Ndiff = 234 - 232 =2

Therefore,
Nall - Ndiff = 2
As per the tool the proposed project activity is a “common practice” within a sector in the applicable
geographical area if both the following conditions are fulfilled:
(a) The factor F is greater than 0.2, and

(b) Nall-Ndiff is greater than 3.
For the current project activity, it comes out that:
i) F < 0.2, since it is equal to 0.008

ii) Nall-Ndiff < 3, since it is equal to 2
Notably, the project will only be considered a common practice if "both" the conditions are true. Since
both the conditions are false for the current project activity, it can be concluded that the proposed project
activity is not a common practice.
Outcome of Step 4:
In conclusion, the proposed Project is deemed to be additional according to ACM0002 and the
methodological tool – “Demonstration and assessment of additionality”, version 7.0.0.
B.6. Emission reductions:
B.6.1. Explanation of methodological choices:

>>
As per the applied methodology ACM0002, Version 13.0.0, The emission reductions attributable to the
proposed project activity during any given year are calculated as the difference between the Baseline
Emissions ( BEy), the Project Emissions( PEy) and the Leakage ( LEy), in that year.
Baseline emissions
As per section II of ACM0002, Version 13.0.0
Where:
BEy = Baseline emissions in year y (tCO2/yr)
of the implementation of the CDM project activity in year y (MWh/yr)
page 30
EFgrid,CM,y = Combined margin CO2 emission factor for grid connected power generation in year y
calculated using the latest version of the “Tool to calculate the emission factor for an
electricity system” (tCO2/MWh)
Calculation of EGPJ,y
The calculation of EGPJ,y is different for (a) greenfield plants, (b) retrofits and replacements, and
(c) capacity additions. These cases are described next:
(a) Greenfield renewable energy power plants
If the project activity is the installation of a new grid-connected renewable power plant/unit at a site
where no renewable power plant was operated prior to the implementation of the project activity, then:
EG PJ,y  EG facility,y
Where:
of the implementation of the CDM project activity in year y (MWh/yr)
EGfacility,y = Quantity of net electricity generation supplied by the project plant/unit to the grid in
year y (MWh/yr)
The project activity is a Greenfield project. Hence, the baseline emissions would be computed as:
Project Emissions
As per ACM002, Version 13.0.0, For most renewable power generation project activities, PEy = 0.
However, some project activities may involve project emissions that can be significant. These emissions
shall be accounted for as project emissions by using the following equation:
PEy  PEFF,y  PEGP,y  PEHP,y

Where:
PEy = Project emissions in year y (tCO2e/yr)
PEFF,y = Project emissions from fossil fuel consumption in year y (tCO2/yr)
PEGP,y = Project emissions from the operation of geothermal power plants due to the release of
non-condensable gases in year y (tCO2e/yr)
PEHP,y = Project emissions from water reservoirs of hydro power plants in year y (tCO2e/yr)
The project activity doesn’t involve emissions from any of the sources mentioned above.
Thus, PEy = 0
Leakage emissions
page 31
No leakage emissions are considered. The main emissions potentially giving rise to leakage in the
context of electric sector projects are emissions arising due to activities such as power plant construction
and upstream emissions from fossil fuel use (e.g. extraction, processing, transport). These emissions
sources are neglected.
Emission reductions
Emission reductions are calculated as follows:

activity, whichever occurs later.
B.7.2. Description of the monitoring plan:
This monitoring plan is developed in accordance with the modalities and procedures for large-scale CDM
project activities and is proposed for grid-connected hydroelectric project being implemented in Himachal
Pradesh in India. The monitoring plan, which will be implemented by the project proponent describes
about the monitoring organisation, parameters to be monitored, monitoring practices, quality assurance,
quality control procedures, data storage and archiving.
Monitoring Organisation
The Project Activity will be managed by a Board of Directors. The board will appoint a full time
General Manager who will be assisted by a Manager (Operations), in-charge of all technical aspects and
Manager (Finance) who looks after financial matters of the company. The Manager (Operations) who
will be responsible for the hydro project will have under him one Asst. Manager for the hydro project.
The authority and responsibility for registration, monitoring, measurement, reporting and reviewing of
the data rests with the Board of Directors. The Board March delegate the same to a competent person
identified for the purpose. The identified person will be the in charge of GHG monitoring activities and
page 35
prepare necessary audit reports for review by the management i.e. Board of Directors or its Committee
for review.
The identified person in charge will be assisted by a team of experienced personnel in disciplines such
as mechanical and electrical with experience in plant operation, measurements and management. The
primary responsibility of the team is to collect, measure, monitor, record and reports the information on
various data items to the person in charge and the General Manager, in accordance with the applicable
standards. Annual calibration of various instruments used in the monitoring of the data and record
keeping of the same also will be the responsibility of the team.
The responsibility of storage and archiving of information in good condition also lies with the
designated person in charge. The person in charge will undertake periodic verifications and onsite
inspections to ensure the quality of the data collected by the team.
The company may introduce an internal audit system for the GHG compliance. Internal auditing will be
carried out as per the monitoring schedule and whenever necessary.
The monitoring plan includes monitoring of energy supplied to the grid system. Emission reductions
resulted from the project activity will be calculated based on the energy supplied to the grid system in
accordance with the calculations illustrated in Section B.6.3 of the PDD. Emission reductions generated
by the project shall be monitored at regular intervals. The crediting period chosen for the project activity
is 10 years.
Monitoring equipment comprises of energy meters, which will monitor the energy fed by the plant to
Northern grid system by the proposed project. Project proponents have to install two energy meters one
is main meter and the other is check meter. Both the meters will be calibrated. Project proponent will
appoint a Designated Operational Entity (DOE) for verification of emission reductions and leakages
resulted by the project activity at regular intervals.
Also as per the requirements of the Indian DNA, 2% of the CER revenue will be spent every year on
sustainable development activities like Scholarships to students, Maintenance and up gradation of schools
in the area, Conducting medical camps, Support in operation of the public health centres, Maintenance of
bathing ghats, Conducting sport events and any other socio-development activities as requested by the
villagers.
A separate account for the revenue spent on these activities will be maintained. The revenue spent on
these activities will be reflected in the audited balance sheet of the company every year.
Leakage Monitoring
The proposed 20 MW hydroelectric project is renewable energy type and it utilizes flowing water for
power generation and it does not involve any GHG emission. No leakage is involved in the proposed
activity.
Data Recording and Storage
The net energy fed to the grid system by the project activity will be recorded by project proponents
using either of the two meters (main meter and check meter). The document which will contain all
details such as the equipment data, calibration status, previous reading, current reading, export, import,
page 36
net billable units, date and time of recording etc. This document will be used as a basic document for
monitoring and verification of the net energy exported to the grid.
The above document will be preserved for verification of emission reductions from the project, in safe
storage. Supporting documents such as receipts of payments released will also be preserved in safe
storage for later verification by an independent third party.

SECTION D. Environmental impacts
D.1. Documentation on the analysis of the environmental impacts, including transboundary

impacts:
As per the prevailing regulations of the Host Party i.e. India represented by the Ministry of Environment
and Forests (MoEF), Govt. of India, EIA Notification 2006, Hydro projects of less than 25 MW capacity
do no required EIA to be conducted27.
Proposed project will not result in displacement of any population at the project site. The scheme does
not involve any submergence of land and therefore, no rehabilitation activity is needed.
There shall be no adverse impact on forest, wildlife or aquatic life due to implementation of this project.
There is neither any reserved forest area nor any wild life reserved area near to this project. Construction
of this project will thus not interfere with any reserved forest land nor reserved wild life area.
Local population will be greatly benefitted and living conditions will improve as local people will be
engaged during the construction as well as during operation and maintenance of the project activity.
From the above discussions, it is evident that the proposed project is not likely to have any significant
adverse environmental effects during execution or after commissioning.
D.2. If environmental impacts are considered significant by the project participants or the host
Party, please provide conclusions and all references to support documentation of an environmental
impact assessment undertaken in accordance with the procedures as required by the host Party:
Environment impacts are not significant due the project activity and also as stated above as per the EIA
Notification 2006; Hydro projects with less than 25 MW capacity need not conduct EIA. However the
project proponent has obtained the clearances from the following departments:
 District Forest Officer (MOEF);
 Director Fisheries;
 Irrigation and Public Health;
 Gram Panchayat;
 Techno-Economical Viability;
 State Pollution Control Board.
