3 PoA Registration Cycle
 Host country LoAs
 Some host country DNA does not support PoA or does not have a
comprehensive LoA procedure for PoA and CPAs
 CME knowledge on CDM and PoA
 CMEs are not fully aware of its role and responsibilities in the PoA or
with limited CDM project implementation and monitoring knowledge
 Lengthy Validation process (EB 55 Annex 38 para. 13-17):
 PoA-DD and generic (& real-case) CPA-DD + supporting documents
for whole PoA design v.s. PoA Validation report
 Real case CPA-DD + CPA supporting documents v.s. CPA
Validation/Inclusion report
 Example: 1000 pages doc package for 1 PoA VAL

Guidelines on “additionallity demonstration at the PoA level and use criteria
for inclusion of the CPA in the PoA to establish additionality at the CPA level” as
per EB meeting report 54 para. 44;
“Guidelines for determining the eligibility criteria related to the inclusion of
CPAs in registered programmes of activities” as per EB 57 meeting report,
paragraph 10;
Further clarification on the leakage emission from PoA / CPAs for applicable
small-scale methodologies, e.g.:
 Most SSC methodologies have included a leakage requirement under PoA
context: “The scrapping of replaced equipment should be documented and
independently verified.” it is unclear how and who is responsible to verify.
 AMS IIG v.2 para 15 Leakage for potentially increased baselines for other
CDM projects.
Further clarification on cases when a PoA is implementing a mandatory law v.s.
current CDM decision on policies with definition / quantification on improvement
of the enforcement

3 PoA Registration Cycle
Pending Procedures for PoA Registration
PROCEDURE FOR REQUESTS FOR REGISTRATION OF PROPOSED
CDM PROJECT ACTIVITIES (EB59 Annex 13):
“5. The DOE shall submit the required documents listed in latest
applicable version of the completeness checklist for requests for
registration, which the secretariat will make publicly available by

“11. …The schedule of requests for registration to be processed,
including the expected date of commencement, shall be made
publicly available.”

4 CPA Inclusion Cycle
Open-ended Liability Issues
 Updated PoA Registration and Issuance Procedures (EB55 Annex 38):
“26. If a DNA involved in the PoA or a Board member identifies
information that may disqualify a CPA from inclusion in the PoA or
renewal of its crediting period, the Secretary of the Board shall be
notified, in accordance with the “Procedures for review of
erroneous inclusion of a CPA” within one year after the inclusion of
CPA into a registered PoA or renewal of the crediting period of the
CPA, or six (6) months after the first issuance of CERs for that
CPA, whichever is the later, Such a request for review shall be
related to issues associated with the compliance of the CPA with
the eligibility criteria specified in the CDM-POA-DD. ”
 However, liabilities for CPA inclusions are still open-ended as per
“Procedures for review of erroneous inclusion of a CPA” (EB55
Annex37)

4 CPA Inclusion Cycle
Procedures for review of erroneous inclusion of a CPA
“10. A DOE, that has not performed validation, registration, inclusion or verification
functions with regard to this PoA shall conduct the review referred to in
paragraph 9, by assessing a random sample of 10% of all CPAs currently
included and submitting a report to Board within eight weeks. ”
“16. The consequences of the extension of the review are that: (a) …
(b) A further sample of 15% of included CPAs shall be reviewed in
accordance with the modalities contained in paragraphs 10 to 13;
(c) If this second review also leads to the exclusion of further CPAs, the
Board may decide to extend the review to all included CPAs. ”
Consequences: Re-open the review to all CPAs included!
Solution: only review CPAs which are still within the request for review time
stipulated in paragraph 5 of the procedures, i.e., one year after the inclusion of
CPA into a registered PoA or renewal of the crediting period of the CPA, or six
(6) months after the first issuance of CERs for that CPA, whichever is later
