SECTION A. General description of small-scale project activity
A.1 Title of the small-scale project activity:
1.50 MW Wind Power Project by JC Retail India Pvt. Ltd. Pune Maharashtra, India
Version 02
29/11/2010
A.2. Description of the small-scale project activity:
Jai Hind Collections Retail India Private limited, (J.C Retail India Pvt. Ltd ) has envisaged the installation
of 1.5 MW wind turbine to generate electricity. The wind turbine of 1.5 MW capacity is being
implemented in the state of Rajasthan at village Ratan Ka Bas of Jodhpur district. The project is aGreenfield activity at the project site which has been recently developed by the technology provider. Prior
to the project activity electricity would have been generated from already installed grid connected power
plants, which is also taken as the baseline for the project activity as explained in section B.4.
The installed capacity of India has grown tremendously over years and has reached to 147.965 GW in
2009. However, it is dominated by coal-based thermal generation which amounts to 77.649 GW out of
total thermal generation capacity of 93.725 GW1. The share of renewable resources is still very low
amounting to approximately 9% of the total installed capacity. The Indian power system has been divided
into two independent grids viz. NEWNE and Southern grid. NEWNE grid is an integrated grid
comprising regional grids of northern, eastern, western & north-eastern regions. The electricity generated
from the project activity (WTG) will feed into NEWNE grid. The project activity installs model S82 of
Suzlon make WTG which is designed for generating the optimal power output at sites with a modest windspeed regime like Rajasthan. Wind turbine transforms the kinetic energy of wind into mechanical energy
which is further converted into electrical energy. There are no associated greenhouse gas emissions in the
electricity generation process since it utilizes a clean energy source. Thus it reduces equivalent amount of
GHG emissions that would have been generated in the absence of the project activity from the grid
connected power plants which is dominated by fossil fuel based thermal power plants.
With todays technology, it has become possible to generate electricity from wind on a commercial scale.
Although wind based electricity generation is not an economical option, sustainable development
mechanisms like CDM help to alleviate the financial risk associated with the project and motivate project
developers to invest in wind energy. The project activity is expected to deliver approximately 2.65 GWh
annually to the NEWNE Grid. In the absence of the project activity the same amount of electricity would
have been produced from the fossil fuels leading to more emissions of GHG which are avoided by thisproject activity.
Project Contribution towards Sustainable Development
Ministry of Environment and Forests, Govt. of India has stipulated the social well being, economic well
being, environmental well being and technological well being as the four indicators for sustainable
development for Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) projects. The proposed project activity
contributes to these aspects in the following manner.
Social well being

Rural and infrastructural development in the areas around the project.
The project activity has assisted in higher interaction amongst the local villagers thereby
increasing the flow of information in the villages thereby increasing the levels of awareness andknowledge in the community.
Contribution towards achievement of the objectives of Government of India's policy on wind
power generation.
Environmental well being Reduction in the consumption of fossil fuels in the grid for generating additional electricity
equivalent to that generated by the wind turbine.
Reduction of GHG emissions associated with fossil-fuel based electricity generation in the grid.
Economic well being Assisting in economic development of remote villages in Rajasthan by making investment in that
area. As a result of huge amount of investment, lot of ancillary and utility units may open up, which
will provide employment opportunities to local people, thus bringing about economic well being.
Technological well being The successful implementation of project activity encourages other entrepreneurs to adopt this
technology and invest in wind energy

A.4.2. Type and category(ies) and technology/measure of the small-scale project activity:
Type: I - Renewable energy projects
Project category: I.D. Electricity generation for a system
The project is a renewable energy project with maximum output capacity of 1.5 MW and is well below
the specified limits of 15 MW of maximum output capacity as per Appendix B of the simplified
modalities and procedures for small-scale project activities. Hence it qualifies for the mentioned type and
category.
Technology to be employed by the project activity:
Project activity involves installation of Suzlon make WTG S82-1500 kW whose technical details are
furnished in the table below. The 1.5 MW S82 Model is based on robust design with pitch regulatedblade operation, a 3-stage gearbox with 1650 kW rating and flexible coupling to the asynchronous
induction generator. The Flexi-slip System provides efficient control of the load and power control. The
S82-1500 kW is designed to withstand extreme conditions and operate effectively with low maintenance
cost. The project lifetime is 20 years as specified by the technology supplier. A plant load factor of 21%
has been assumed as mentioned in tariff order of Rajasthan2, in order to account for variation in PLF a
senstivity analysis for both 10% increment and decrement has been included in the calculations of
section B.5. Wind, being a renewable source of energy can produce renewable electricity and replaces
the equivalent amount of electrical power at regional grid which otherwise would have been generated
from fossil fuel based power stations, as conventional in India. Therefore, the project reduces emissions
(as calculated in the subsequent sections A.4.3 & B.6.3) corresponding to the amount of electricity that
could have been emitted because of the fossil fuel use in absence of this project activity.

Hydro power plants with reservoirs that satisfy at
least one of the following conditions are eligible
to apply this methodology: The project activity is implemented in an
existing reservoir with no change in the
volume of reservoir.
The project activity is implemented in an
existing reservoir, where the volume of
reservoir is increased and the power density of
the project activity, as per definitions given in
the Project Emissions section, is greater than 4
W/m2;
The project activity results in new reservoirs
and the power density of the power plant, as
per definitions given in the Project Emissionssection, is greater than 4 W/m2.
The Project activity is power generation from wind
energy source hence criteria is not applicable to the
project activity.
In the case of biomass power plants, no other
biomass types than renewable biomass are to
be used in the project plant.
The project activity does not use any type ofbiomass. Hence this criteria is not applicable.
If the unit added has both renewable and non-
renewable components (e.g., a wind/diesel unit),
the eligibility limit of 15 MW for a small-scale
CDM project activity applies only to the
renewable component. If the unit added co-fires
fossil fuel, the capacity of the entire unit shall not
exceed the limit of 15 MW.
The project activity is a 1.5 MW windelectricity generation. Unit does not co-firesfossil fuels since wind is the only source ofpower generation.
Combined heat and power (co-generation)
systems are not eligible under this category.
Project activity is not a combined heat andpower system.
In the case of project activities that involve the
addition of renewable energy generation units at
an existing renewable power generation facility,
the added capacity of the units added by the
project should be lower than 15 MW and should
be physically distinct from the existing units.
Project involves installation of wind mill ofcapacity of 1.5 MW at project site where no unitwas already existing. It does not involve capacityaddition.
In the case of retrofit or replacement, to qualify
as a small-scale project, the total output of the
modified or retrofitted unit shall not exceed the
limit of 15 MW
Not applicable, the entire wind project is a Greenfield project activity and this project is not the
enhancement or upgradation project.
B.3. Description of the project boundary:
Project boundary has been ascertained using para 9 of AMS I.D. 'The physical, geographical site of the
renewable generation source delineates the project boundary.'.
Hence all the WTG equipments, and the metering arrangements and connected sub-station consists of the
project boundary as marked in the figure below.

B.4. Description of baseline and its development:
The proposed project activity is a Greenfield activity as it involves installation of a new Wind turbine
generator at the project site by the Project Participant. Therefore, as per guidelines for baseline in Para 10
of methodology, AMS I.D, If the project activity is the installation of a new grid-connected renewable
power plant/unit, the baseline scenario is the electricity delivered to the grid by the project activity that
otherwise would have been generated by the operation of grid-connected power plants and by the
addition of new generation source. Thus, Baseline for the project activity is power generated from
renewable energy source multiplied by the grid emission factor of the respective grid calculated in
transparent and conservative manner.
Further, as per Para 11 of AMS I.D, baseline emission is the product of electrical energy baseline EGBL,yexpressed in MWh of electricity produced by the renewable generating unit multiplied by the grid
emission factor.
BEy = EG BL,y X EFCO2,grid,.y
Where,

BEy = Baseline Emissions in year y; t CO2
EGBL, y = Quantity of net electricity supplied to the grid from project activity in year y (MWh)
EF CO2, grid, y = CO2 emission factor of the grid in year y; t CO 2/MWh
The methodology provides following approaches for emission factor calculations.
(a) Combined margin (CM), consisting of the combination of operating margin (OM) and build margin
(BM) according to the procedures prescribed in the Tool to calculate the emission factor for an
electricity system, version 2.0.
OR
b) The weighted average emissions (in t CO2/MWh) of the current generation mix. The data of the year inwhich project generation occurs must be used.
Option (a) has been considered to calculate the grid emission factor as per the Tool to calculate the
emission factor for an electricity system since data is available from an official source.
CO2 Baseline Database for the Indian Power Sector, Version 5, Nov 20095, published by Central
Electricity Authority (CEA), Government of India has been used for the calculation of emission
reduction.
As per the "Tool to calculate the emission factor for an electricity system" version 2, following steps
have been followed.
STEP 1. Identify the relevant electricity power 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) method.
STEP 4. Calculate the operating margin emission factor according to the selected method.
STEP 5. Identify the cohort group of power units to be included in the build margin (BM).
STEP 6. Calculate the build margin emission factor.
STEP 7. Calculate the combined margin (CM) emissions factor.
STEP 1. Identify the relevant electricity power systems.
The tool defines the electric power 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 Power Sector into five regional grids viz.
Northern, Eastern, Western, North-eastern and Southern.

However since 2007-08 as the four regional grids except the southern grid has been synchronized, they
are now being considered as one and named as NEWNE grid. Since the project supplies electricity to the
NEWNE grid, emissions generated due to the electricity generated by the NEWNE grid as per CMcalculations will serve as the baseline for this project.
STEP 2. Choose whether to include off-grid power plants in the project electricity system
(optional).
Project participants have the option of choosing between the following two options to calculate the
operating margin and build margin emission factor:
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 calculation.
The Project Participant has chosen only grid power plants in the calculation.
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 data required to calculate simple adjusted OM or Dispatch data analysis is not possible due to lack of
availability of this activity data to the project developers. The choice of other two options for calculating
the operating margin emission factor depend on the generation of electricity from low cost/must run
sources. In the context of the methodology low cost/must run sources typically include hydro, geothermal,
wind, low cost biomass, nuclear and solar generation.
Share of Must-Run (Hydro/Nuclear) (% of Net Generation)
2004-2005 2005-06 2006-07 2007-08 2008-09
NEWNE NA* 18.0% 18.5% 19.0% 17.3%
South 21.6% 27.0% 28.3% 27.1% 22.8%
India 18.0% 20.1% 20.9% 21.0% 18.6%
Data for NEWNE grid in the CEA database has been included from 2005-06 onwards
The above data clearly shows that the percentage of total grid generation by low cost/must run plants (on
the basis of average of three most recent years) for the NEWNE and southern grids are less than 50 % of
the total generation. Thus the average emission rate method cannot be applied, as low cost/must runresources constitute less than 50% of total grid generation.

The Simple operating margin has been calculated as per the weighted average emissions (in
tCO2/MWh) of all generating sources serving the system, excluding hydro, geo-thermal, wind, low-cost
biomass, nuclear and solar generation;
In the project activity, (ex-ante) the full generation-weighted average for the most recent 3 years for
which data are available at the time of PDD submission has been considered. The data is published
annually by the Central Electricity Authority. The CEA database is based on the methodology ACM0002
version 10.
It is confirmed that ex-ante vintage is considered in the project activity and cannot be changed during the
crediting period.
STEP 4. Calculate the operating margin emission factor according to the selected method.
The operating margin emission factor has been calculated using a 3 year data vintage:
Net Generation in Operating Margin (GWh)
Year MWh (NEWNE)
2006-2007 379,471
2007-2008 401,642
2008-2009 421,803
Simple Operating Margin (tCO2/MWh) (incl. Imports)
Year tCO2/MWh (NEWNE)
2006-2007 1.0085
2007-2008 0.9999
2008-2009 1.0066
Simple Operating Margin = Generation weighted average of the simple operating Margin
= 1.0049 (tCO2/MWh)
STEP 5. Identify the cohort group of power units to be included in the build margin (BM).
The value of the data has been taken from the data published by CEA as referred in earlier step. The CEA
Baseline Database has been calculated as per the methodology ACM0002 and the details of the keyassumptions considered to calculate the figure can be found in the User Guide of the same.
Project participants can choose between one of the following two options:
Option 1
Calculate the Build Margin emission factor EFBM,y ex-ante based on the most recent information available
on plants already built for sample group m at the time of PDD submission. The sample group m consists
of either the five power plants that have been built most recently or the power plant capacity additions in
the electricity system that comprise 20% of the system generation (in MWh) and that have been built
most recently. Project participants should use from these two options that sample group that comprises
the larger annual generation.

15
Option 2
For the first crediting period, the Build Margin emission factor EFBM,y must be updated annually ex-postfor the year in which actual project generation and associated emissions reductions occur. For subsequent
crediting periods, EFBM,y should be calculated ex-ante, as described in option 1 above. The sample group
m consists of either the five power plants that have been built most recently or the power plant capacity
additions in the electricity system that comprise 20% of the system generation (in MWh) and that have
been built most recently. Project participants should use from these two options that sample group that
comprises the larger annual generation.
STEP 6. Calculate the build margin emission factor (EFBM, y )
Option 1 as described above is chosen in the project activity. BM is calculated ex-ante based on the most
recent information available at the time of submission of PDD.
The EFBM, y is estimated as 0.6752 tCO2/MWh (With sample group constituting most recent capacity
additions to the grid comprising 20% of the system generation)
STEP 7. Calculate the combined margin (CM) emissions factor
Combined Margin The combined margin is the weighted average of the simple operating Margin and
the build margin. In particular, for intermittent and non-dispatchable generation types such as wind and
solar photovoltaic, the Tool to calculate the emission factor for an electricity system, version 2.0, allows
to weigh the operating margin and Build margin at 75% and 25%, respectively.
The baseline emission factor is calculated using the combined margin approach as described in the
following steps:
Calculation of Baseline Emission Factor EFy
The baseline emission factor EFy is calculated as the weighted average of the Operating Margin emission
factor (EFOM, y) and the Build Margin emission factor (EFBM, y):
EF y = w OM* EFOM, y + w BM * EF BM, y
Where the weights w OM and w BM , are 75% and 25% respectively for wind energy projects, and EFOM, yand EFBM, y are calculated as described in Steps 1 and 2 above and are expressed in tCO2/MWh.
Baseline Emission factor(NEWNE) = 0.75*1.0049 + 0.25*0.6752
= 0.9225 tCO2/MWh
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 small-scale CDM project activity:
Power generation in India is dominated by fossil fuel-based thermal power plants producing conventional
electricity supplied at regional grids. It is also evident from the share of power generation in the capacity
mix of India stated in section A.2 of the PDD.

National Electricity Policy6
also encourages coal-based power plants due to their economic viability and it
further emphasizes utilization of lignite reserves of country for power generation to meet future electricity
demand of the country.
The project activity is production of electricity from an environmentally benign wind technology.
However, wind electricity generation is not a financially attractive option and has a very low share in the
present generation capacity. Therefore, in absence of project activity it would make economic sense to
continue with the baseline scenario.
The implementation of the project activity was a voluntary step undertaken by the project developers with
no direct or indirect mandate by law. The project activity is in line with the policies of the Government of
India Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE). Wind Power Project is one of the thrust areas
of power generation from renewable in the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy. It has been
recognized that wind power projects can play a critical role in improving the over all energy scenario of
the country and in particular for remote and inaccessible areas like deserts, sea shores etc.
In accordance with paragraph 28 of the Simplified Modalities and procedures for Small Scale CDM
project activities, a Simplified Baseline and Monitoring methodology listed in Appendix B may be used
for a Small Scale CDM project activity if project participants are able to demonstrate that the project
activity would otherwise not be implemented due to the existence of one or more barriers listed in
Attachment A of Appendix. B. These barriers are:
A. Investment Barrier
B. Technology Barrier
C. Barriers due to Prevailing Practice
D. Other Barriers.
The project faced an investment barrier to its implementation, hence according to the Attachment A,
investment barrier has been chosen to demonstrate additionality.
Investment Barrier
Application of Benchmark analysis
With reference to the Guidance 16 of Annex 58 of EB 51, " The benchmark approach is suitedto circumstances where the baseline does not require investment or is outside the direct controlof the project developer, i.e. cases where the choice of the developer is to invest or not to
invest."
In reference to both the guidance above, as the baseline scenario for the project activity is to supply the
electricity to NEWNE grid, for which no investment is required by the Project Participant, hence
benchmark approach is best suited approach for PP.
Internal Rate of Return (IRR) is the most common financial indicator used by investors to meet the
financial viability of the project. The Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of the project is calculated and
compared with the benchmark to prove that the proposed CDM project activity is unlikely to be
financially attractive without CER revenues. The assumptions used in calculating project IRR have been
listed in the table below:

The electricity tariff from second year onwards is calculated as per the tariff indexing mechanism
specified in the Rajasthan Electricity Regulatory Commission in its Regulation 76, dated 23 January
20107. As per the regulations the tariff for wind energy projects will be automatically revised during each
subsequent year of control period (2009-2014) according to the following indexing formula
Tn = T1 * (1 + dn) + [0.08 * [LTPLRi LTPLR0] ]
dn = [a * (SIn-1/SI0 - 1) + b * (CIn-1/CI0 - 1)]/ (a+b)

LTPLR(n) = Long term prime lending rate (in %) of State Bank of India as prevalent as on 31st January
of each calender year prior to nth year of the Control Period.
LTPLR(0) = Long term prime lending rate (in %) of State Bank of India as prevalent as on 31st Jannuary
2009.
This is assumed to be constant. Thus change in Long term prime lending rate of State Bank of
India is assumed to be zero as this would have a negligible impact on the tariff
Thus Tn as determined is 3.87 Rs./kWh.

Applica ion of Benchmark analysis
According to "Guidance on assessment of investment analysis" (EB 41, Annex 45), benchmark can be
derived from commercial lending rates or weighted average costs of capital. PP has used weightedaverage costs of capital as the benchmark for the project activity since the project was expected to be
financed by debt & equity in a ratio of 70:30. The benchmark is derived from weighted average of return
on debt and return on equity as per following formula:
WACC = (Re We) + [Rd Wd (1- Tc)]
Where:
Re = Return on equity
Rd = Return on Debt
We = Percentage of financing that is EquityWd = Percentage of financing that is Debt
T = Tax rate
Return on debt: Prime lending rate of Reserve Bank of India has been taken as the debt benchmark as
per the 'Guidelines on assessment of investment analysis'EB 51, Annex 58.
Return on equity is calculated as per the Capital Asset Pricing Model according to the given formula:
Re = Rf+ Beta x (Rm Rf1)
Where:
Re = Return on Equity
Rf = Rate of risk free investment
Beta = Indicator measuring volatility of a security relative to the asset class (Market)
Rm = Expected market return
Rf1 = Average return of a risk free investment
Beta (e) = Covariance(R, Rm) / Variance(Rm)
Covariance(R, Rm) = Covariance of a stock with market portfolio
Variance(Rm) = Variance of the market portfolio

(in the terminal year). Cost of electricity generated from wind energy is taken from the per unit cost
available from tariff order of Rajasthan Electricity Regulatory Commission dated 16 July 2009.
Based on the above mentioned factors Internal Rate of Return (IRR) is estimated for project owner. Table
below shows the benchmark rate of return as well as the project IRR with and without CDM revenues.

J C Retail India Pvt. Ltd. 1.5 6.52% 8.97% 14.70%
Hence, from the above table it can be concluded that investors of this wind power project activity are not
even able to achieve even their conservative benchmark IRR under normal conditions. The CDM benefit
helps the project in alleviating the risk associated with the project activity. Therefore the project isfinancially additional in the absence of CDM benefit.
Sensitivity analysis
Following factors have been considered in the sensitivity analysis:
1. Gross generation
2. Project cost
3. O&M cost
4. Electricity tariff
The variation in these parameters have been considered for a range of -10% to 10% and the impact of
variation is shown in the table below:

The results of sensitivity analysis show that even with a variation of +10% & -10% in project cost, O&M
cost and gross generation by the wind turbine, project IRR is significantly lower than the benchmark. The
sensitivity analysis was done for project cost & O&M cost for even 12% decrease in the cost. However,
even in that case the IRR for the project activity does not reaches the benchmark value.
Project IRR BenchmarkElectricity Tariff
10% -10% Tariff @ 4.28 Rs/kWh for 20 years

As a conservative approach, assuming that the electricity tariff applicable from second year is same as
that in first year i.e. 4.28 Rs/kWh, even with this assumption project IRR fails to surpass the benchmark.
Thus it can be concluded that the project activity is additional in absence of CDM benefits.

B.6. Emission reductions:
B.6.1. Explanation of methodological choices:
As per Paragraph 11 of methodology I.D. the ex-ante baseline emissions are calculated based on the net
electricity provided to the grid by renewable generating unit multiplied by an emission factor for the
displaced grid electricity (in tCO2 /MWh).
Baseline emissions :
The baseline emission calculation for the project activity is attributable to the CO2 emissions that could
have been produced at grid from fossil fuel based power plants in absence of the proposed project
activity. Therefore the amount of electricity supplied to the baseline grid will be multiplied by the Grid
emission factor to calculate the baseline emissions reduced by the Project.
As per para 11of AMS ID
BEy = EGBL,y X EFCO2,grid,.y
Where,
BEy = Baseline Emissions in year y; t CO2
EGBL,y = Quantity of net electricity supplied to the grid as a result of the implementation of the
CDM project activity in year y (MWh)
EFCO2, grid, y = CO2 emission factor of the grid in year y; t CO 2/MWh
Project Emissions:
As per para 19 to AMS ID for renewable project activities
Pro ect Emission (PEy) in tCO2 /year = 0 except geothermal and hydro power plants. Since project
activity is a wind power plant.
Therefore,
PEy = 0 ...........(1)
Leakage Emissions:
Since project does not involve transfer of an energy generating equipment from another activity, as per
para 15 of AMS ID:
LEy = 0 ......... (2)
Emission Reduction:
As per para 21 of AMS ID,
ERy = BEy-PEy-LEy

Where,
ERy = Emission reductions in year y (t CO2/y)
BEy = Baseline Emissions in year y (t CO2/y)
PEy = Project emissions in year y (t CO2/y)
LEy = Leakage emissions in year y (t CO2/y)
Using equation 1 & 2 we get,
ERy = BEy-0-0
or
ERy = BEy

Any comment: This value is fixed ex-ante
B.6.3 Ex-ante calculation of emission reductions:
Baseline Emissions:
As explained in section B.6.1
BEy = EGBL,y X EFCO2,grid,.y
EGBL,y = Quantity of net electricity supplied to the grid as a result of the implementation of the CDM
project activity in year y (MWh)
EFCO2, grid, y = CO2 emission factor of the grid in year y; t CO 2/MWh
EGBL,y = Gross generation - transmission loss = 2759.4 - 110.376 = 2649 MWh
Emission Factor has been calculated in section B.4 as the combined emission factor.
Thus Baseline Emission = 2649 X 0.9225 = 2,444 tCO2/annum
Emission Reduction:
As explained in section B.6.1
ERy = BEy
Hence, ERy= 2,444 tCO2/annum

The electricity generated is transmitted to substation which has a back up meter on the incoming line of
substation and main meter on the outgoing line. The reading of main meter is used for billing purpose and
for apportioning of individual generation of a WTG. The data from main and back meter will also be keptas record of the net electricity supplied by the WTG.
5. QA-QC Procedure: The meters at substation will be calibrated and sealed annually by RVPNL
personnel. If any meter is found to be faulty it will be replaced by RVPNL. Backup meter is also
installed at the sub-station which act as a fail-safe mechanism in event of main meter failure. The billing
of electricity is done against the main electricity meter at outgoing line of the sub-station. LCS of WTG
are maintained by the WTG provider, as a general practice followed by State electricity board in the state
of Rajasthan.

SECTION D. Environmental impacts
D.1. If required by the host Party, documentation on the analysis of the environmental impacts
of the project activity:
Proposed project activity is using renewable energy generation technology which is free from any kind of
anthropogenic emission. Project activity is not having any negative environmental impact. Only small
amounts of oily and solid wastes are associated with the installation of the WTG which, can be ignored
when compared to Emission reductions. Project activity will result into GHGs emission reduction
equivalent to 2444 t CO2/year.
As per the Schedule 1 of Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF - Government of India) notification
dated September 14, 2006, - 39 activities are required to undertake environmental impact assessment
studies.8 There are no negative environmental effects envisaged for the project. Wind turbines are
considered as zero GHG emitting projects, so there will be no pollution caused by this project.Hence the proposed project does not fall under the list of activities requiring EIA as it will notinvolve any negative environmental impacts. Thus no EIA study was conducted.
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:
Project activity has no significant emissions. Hence no environmental impact analysis was conducted.

E.2. Summary of the comments received:
Stakeholders Involvement:
The project participants prepared necessary documentation before implementation of the project activity
and approached the above stakeholders individually. The project participants have received all
clearances and approvals with no negative comments for the project activity from the Governmental
agencies vested with the authority to examine the proposals from all aspects and issue the same.
Stakeholders comments:
After the brief overview of CDM and project activity given by the project proponent, stakeholder
interaction session was held wherein villagers and other stakeholders recommended that there are no
adverse effects of the project on the villagers and have improved employment in the area. Promotion of
these activities was also advocated. This is also evident from issuance of approvals/consents/licenses for
setting up and commissioning of the project activity and no adverse comments for the project.

Mr. Prabhu Singh. You mentioned the Greenhouse Gas Effect in which some gases come out which are
harmful. Which are these gases and what is their effect?
Ans. The Greenhouse Gas Effect occurs when gases such as carbon dioxide are emitted in large quantity.They trap heat energy emitted by earth's surface and lead to increase in global temperature. This is one of
the gases but most emitted one contributing to Greenhouse Gas Effect. There are other gases too.
Mr. Bheem Singh. Will the project help in improving electricity supply to the villagers and
neighbourhood areas?
Ans. It is expected to improve electricity supply since the electricity generated from the project is fed to
the grid.
Mr. Madan Kanwar. Will this plan of tapping energy from RE sources lead to an increase in jobs for
the villagers?
Ans. Yes, it will definitely lead to increase in the number of jobs for the villagers.
E.3. Report on how due account was taken of any comments received:
No negative comments has been received hence no further action has been taken. The villagers were
satisfied with the positive impact of the project and encouraged the idea of development of such projects.

2. CER estimation:
As detailed in Section B.6.3
Baseline Emissions:
As per the methodology AMS I.D.
BEy = EGBL,y X EFCO2,grid,.y
EGBL,y = Quantity of net electricity supplied to the grid as a result of the implementation of the CDM
project activity in year y (MWh)
EFCO2, grid, y = CO2 emission factor of the grid in year y; t CO 2/MWh
EGBL,y = Gross generation - transmission loss
Gross generation = Installed capacity* PLF*365*24 = 2759.4
Transmission loss = 4%
EGBL,y = 2759.4 - 110.376 = 2649 MWh
Emission Factor has been calculated as the combined emission factor = 0.9225 t CO2/MWh
Thus Baseline Emission = 2649 X 0.9225 = 2,444 tCO2/annum
Since LEy for the project activity is zero therefore, Emission Reduction:
ERy = BEy
Hence, ERy= 2,444 tCO2/annum
Annual generation of CERs is shown in the table below:
