TÜV SÜD Industrie Service GmbH Workshop on PoA under the CDM: challenges and the road ahead - Bonn 8/9 May 2011 Session 9.1 „Application of Sampling in the context of PoA - DOE perspectives.“ Stephan Hild Head of Sales and Focal Point for PoA Carbon Management Service TÜV SÜD Industrie Service GmbH

TÜV SÜD Industrie Service GmbH overview Sampling Validation PoA and CPA 1 CPAs 2…n Verification between CPAs within CPAs CDM PoA Workshop - Bonn - Stephan Hild - TÜV SÜD2

TÜV SÜD Industrie Service GmbH Sampling at Validation stage  Sampling at validation stage  According to CDM M&P and VVM (in particular paras 67 and 85) DOEs must confirm the correct and conservative identification of the Baseline  Validation report must state how the DOE ensures that the PPs present the Baseline in a verifiable manner. Evidence used must not be limited to what is provided by the PPs – the DOE must not omit any evidence that might alter the validation opinion.  Particular relevance for PoAs with a multitude of subsystems. In the context of various project categories cross-check on- site visits are crucial for baseline confirmation.  What would be considered statistically sound in this context? CDM PoA Workshop - Bonn - Stephan Hild - TÜV SÜD3

TÜV SÜD Industrie Service GmbH Sampling at Validation stage  Sampling at validation stage: real life examples  ICS in an Asian LDC: the survey approach  SWH in Africa: the household to household approach CDM PoA Workshop - Bonn - Stephan Hild - TÜV SÜD4

TÜV SÜD Industrie Service GmbH Sampling at Validation stage II  Sampling at validation stage: further fields of sample based cross-checks  Record keeping and operational/management plan of the C/ME to avoid double counting  Compliance of individual installations of a CPA with the eligibility criteria of the registered PoA  What would be considered statistically sound in these contexts? CDM PoA Workshop - Bonn - Stephan Hild - TÜV SÜD5

TÜV SÜD Industrie Service GmbH Sampling at Inclusion stage  Sampling at Inclusion stage  Same as for CPA 1: record keeping and operational/management plan of the C/ME to avoid double counting  Real life example: CFLs in Asia  Compliance of individual installations of a CPA with the eligibility criteria of the registered PoA  Sample based cross-checks depend on the nature of eligibility criteria (EC)  If EC contain baseline information a statistically sound sampling approach is deemed appropriate  Real life example: cook stoves in LatAm CDM PoA Workshop - Bonn - Stephan Hild - TÜV SÜD6

TÜV SÜD Industrie Service GmbH Verification: sampling between CPAs  Verification: sampling between CPAs  According to the PoA procedures (C 6. (k)) the C/ME shall state in the PoA-DD the statistically sound sampling approach to be used by the verifying DOE for sampling between CPAs, if not all CPAs shall be verified  Depends on the chosen approach in the PoA-DD, needs to be validated by validating DOE prior to registration  Must be elaborated in a detailed (i.e. operational) manner CDM PoA Workshop - Bonn - Stephan Hild - TÜV SÜD7

TÜV SÜD Industrie Service GmbH Verification: sampling within CPAs  Verification: sampling within CPAs  Guidance at meth level available?  Depends on the nature of the parameters  EB Sampling guidelines (EB 50) CDM PoA Workshop - Bonn - Stephan Hild - TÜV SÜD8

TÜV SÜD Industrie Service GmbH Sampling in the context of PoA: conclusion  Improvement suggestions:  Default ER per activity  Standardized baselines  Sampling guidelines at methodology level, for different activity types  In general: sampling guidance for PoAs (both Validation and Verification) is urgently needed.  If sampling is required on household to household level, a guideline needs to be provided based on sociologic standards CDM PoA Workshop - Bonn - Stephan Hild - TÜV SÜD9
