(a) Data unit
(b) Description of the data
(c) Source of data
The source(s) of data that will be actually used for the proposed project activity (e.g. which
exact national statistics). Where several sources may be used, explain and justify which data
sources should be preferred.
(d) Value of data applied for the calculation of ex-ante emission reduction estimation
(e) Measurement methods and procedures
Where data or parameters are supposed to be measured, specify the measurement methods
and procedures, including a specification which accepted industry standards or national
or international standards will be applied, which measurement equipment is used, how the
measurement is undertaken, which calibration procedures are applied, what is the accuracy of
the measurement method, who is the responsible person / entity that should undertake the
measurements and what is the measurement interval.
(f) QA/QC procedures
A description of the QA/QC procedures (if any) that should be applied. Below are examples of
QA/QC procedures to be applied from some of the registered CDM project activities.
Parameter (Examples)
Total amount of landfill gas
captured
Quantity of HFC 23
supplied to the destruction
process after purity
adjustment
Electricity supplied to the
grid by the Project
Gross electricity produced
QA/QC procedures to be applied (Examples)
The gas management information and monitoring system will be
certified under the ISO 9000 Quality Management System
A QA/QC organization will be formed and QA/QC procedures that are
equivalent to JIS (Japanese Industrial Standard) in terms of equipment
and analytical method will be set. Will be measured using two flowmeters
in parallel with weekly calibration.
These data will be directly used for calculation of emission reductions.
Sales record and other records are used to ensure the consistency. The
electricity meter will be calibrated on a yearly basis by the electricity
distributor in order to accurately monitor electricity sales.
Meters will be subject to a regular maintenance and testing regime to
ensure accuracy. Their readings will be double-checked by the electricity
distribution company.
In addition, many PDDs make general statements about the QA/QC procedures in place. Below
are some examples:
• Description of the quality assurance practices such as how monitoring records are taken
and kept, how often the site is audited, how the personnel are trained, etc.
• Statement that the project developer has a quality assurance system, e.g. ISO series, in
place.
(g) Comments
Any comments should be stated here. Relevant background documentation should be
provided in Annex 4.
Project participants should also indicate the operational and management structure to implement
the monitoring activities proposed in the PDD. A chart showing the organizational structure, as well
as a description of the responsibilities of relevant parties and personnel, would be useful.
