  1. Current status of the implementation of Guidelines on the consideration of suppressed demand in CDM methodologies FIRST SDM JOINT COORDINATION WORKSHOP, Maritim Hotel, Bonn, Germany 24 - 25 March 2012 UNFCCC secretariat

  2. OVERVIEW • Evolution of the SD guidelines • Methodologies where SD is implemented • Case study AMS I.L • IV. Future work

  3. Evolution of suppressed demand guidelines • Para 47 of 3/CMP.1:M & P of CDM cite future emissions increase • CMP.5 and CMP.6 request EB action • SSC WG 27(2010) • EB 61 and EB 62, 2011 (guidelines approved) • EB 63 (work program approved) • CMP.7 requests EB to accelerateimplementation in methodologies • Priority focus on LDCs, SIDs, African countries and underrepresented countries

  4. Key Features of SD Guidelines • Recognises that future emissions will increase due to Income and price effects i.e. demand for a service increases in the baseline over time due to increase in income and decrease in cost per unit service during the project. • Applicable where the minimum service level (MSL) is not met • MSL is that service that meets basic human needs (e.g. basic housing, basic energy services including lighting, cooking, drinking water supply) • Provides methodological approaches under a suppressed demand situation for: • Identification of baseline measure/technology; and • Baseline service level to use to calculate baseline emissions.

  5. Safeguards in SD Guidelines (a) Environmental integrity has to be safeguarded; (b) Financial viability of the CDM project cannot be the predominant criteria; (c) Normative decisions have to be clearly referenced and explained; (d) Emission intensity and baseline level of service have to be re-evaluated and updated periodically.

  6. AMS-I.L “Electrification of rural communities using renewable energy“ (EB 66) • AMS-I.L joins AMS I.A and AMS III.AV; • RE Electrification of households & SMEs with no access to electricity • Default emission factors; • Tranche 1: [Np < 55 kWh/year] 6.8 kg CO2/kWh; • Tranche 2: [55< Nz <250]  1.3 kg CO2/kWh; • Tranche 3:[Nw> 250]  1.0 kg CO2/kWh ; • New UN-backed emissions reduction scheme helps poorer nations use clean energy – (6 March 2012)

  7. AMS-I.L Rationale for defaults • kWh/household: 4 global and 14 regional sources referenced • IEA World Energy Outlook,UNDP, UNIDO, World Bank reports, national/regional case studies; • 250 kWh/household/year • 55 kWh of 250 kWh is lighting; • BL technology- Kerosene lamp (146 L/Yr), 6.8 kg CO2/kWh; • 195 kWh of 250 kWh is for household appliances • BL technology- diesel generator, 50% load factor,1.3 kg CO2/kWh • > 250 kWh for other users (SMEs, agricultural water pumps) • BL technology- DG,100% load factor, 1.0 kg CO2/kWh;

  8. MORE TO COME……. • Electrification by grid extension • Revision of AMS III AR • Revision of AMS I A • Revision of AMS III F • Revision of the SD guidelines • … • …. • Your inputs are critical to make it happen!
