1. INTRODUCTION<br />
South Pole Carbon Asset Management (SPC) has commissioned the TÜV NORD<br />
JI/CDM Certification Program (formally UNFCCC accredited DOE) to carry out the<br />
verification of the project: “18.86 MW Bundled Wind Power Project, India”, with<br />
regard to the relevant requirements for voluntary emission reduction on demand /CON/ .<br />
The verifiers have reviewed the implementation of the monitoring plan (MP), for the<br />
VER project for the first crediting period 2001-07-12 to 2006-12-31.<br />
The applied monitoring methodology is “ACM0002: Consolidated baseline<br />
methodology for grid-connected electricity generation from renewable sources”<br />
(Version 06 date. 19/05/2006). GHG data related to voluntary emission reduction for<br />
the monitoring period covering 2001-07-12 to 2006-12-31 was verified in detailed<br />
manner using set of requirements, audit practices and principles as required under<br />
verification criteria.<br />
This report presents the findings and conclusions of the verification assessment of<br />
voluntary emission reduction.<br />
1.1. Objective<br />
The purpose of this verification, by independent checking of objective evidence, is as<br />
follows:<br />
- To verify that the project is implemented as planned and described in the project<br />
design document /PDD/ ;<br />
- To confirm that the monitoring system is implemented and fully functional to<br />
generate voluntary emission reductions (VERs) without any double counting; and<br />
- To establish that the data reported are accurate, complete, consistent,<br />
transparent and free of material error or omission by checking the monitoring<br />
records and the emissions reduction calculation.<br />
1.2. Scope<br />
The verification of this registered CDM project is based on the validated project<br />
design document /PDD/ , the monitoring report /MR1/, /MR2/ , emission reduction calculation<br />
spread sheet /XLS/ , supporting documents made available to the verifier and<br />
information collected through performing interviews and during the on-site<br />
assessment. Furthermore publicly available information was considered as far as<br />
available and required.<br />
The TÜV NORD JI/CDM CP has, based on the recommendations in the Validation<br />
and Verification Manual /VVM/ , employed a risk-based approach in the verification,<br />
focusing on the identification of significant risks and reliability of project monitoring<br />
and generation of emission reductions.<br />

3. METHODOLOGY<br />
The verification of the project was carried out in April - June 2007 after the contract<br />
dated.<br />
Preparations: From 2007-04-22 to 2007-05-01<br />
On-site verification: 2007-05-02<br />
(Draft) Reporting: 2007-05-20<br />
(Final) Reporting: From 2007-05-21 to 2007-06-07<br />
The verification consisted of the following steps:<br />
• A desk review of the Monitoring Report /MR1/ /MR2/ , the emission reduction<br />
calculation spreadsheet /XLS/ , and additional supporting documents which were<br />
submitted by the client. A customised verification protocol /CPM/ according to<br />
the Validation and Verification Manual /VVM/ was used to carry out risk based<br />
assessment,<br />
• On-Site assessment,<br />
• Background investigation and follow-up interviews with personnel of the<br />
project developer,<br />
• Verification reporting (Draft Verification Report and Final Verification Report).<br />
The criteria of this verification includes the relevant rules and steps of CDM (without<br />
considering the public availability of the MR and the verification report) and the<br />
contract conditions /CON/ .<br />
Nonconformities raised during the verification can either be seen as a non-fulfilment<br />
of criteria ensuring the proper implementation of a project or where a risk to deliver<br />
high quality emission reductions is identified.<br />
Corrective Action Requests (CARs) are issued, if:<br />
• There is a clear deviation concerning to the above mentioned applicable<br />
criteria (esp. the monitoring plan).<br />
• requirements set by the monitoring plan or qualifications in the validation<br />
opinion have not been met; or<br />
• There is a risk that the project would not be able to deliver emission<br />
reductions.<br />
The verification team may also use the term Clarification Request (CR), which would<br />
be issued if:<br />
• Additional information is needed to fully clarify an issue.<br />
The identified risks are reported in the form of CAR, CR and FAR in the Draft<br />
Verification Report (DVR). Based on the closer or response provided against the<br />
CAR and CR reported in the DVR and the revised MR, the Final Verification Report<br />
(FVR) containing the verification opinion is issued.<br />

This scope of this engagement covers the verification and certification of voluntary<br />
greenhouse gas emission reductions generated by the above mentioned project<br />
covering 2001-07-12 to 2006-12-31.<br />
Verification Opinion The verification is based on the revised monitoring report (June 2007 Version 01),<br />
the monitoring plan as set out in the validated PDD, the validation report, emission<br />
reduction calculation spreadsheet and supporting documents made available to the<br />
TÜV NORD JI/CDM CP by the project participant.<br />
As a result of the verification, the verifier confirms that:<br />
• All operations of the project are implemented and installed as planned and<br />
described in the validated project design document.<br />
• The installed equipment essential for generating emission reductions runs<br />
reliable and is calibrated appropriately.<br />
• The monitoring system is in place and functional. The project is ready to<br />
generate GHG emission reductions.<br />
As the result of the verification, the verifier confirms that the GHG emission reductions<br />
are calculated without material misstatements in a conservative and appropriate<br />
manner. TÜV NORD JI/CDM CP herewith confirms that the project has achieved<br />
emission reductions in the above mentioned reporting period as below:<br />
