Cambodian Government organised the first national workshop on climate Approved CDM Projects (1 June 2010) change last year and many important stakeholders including politician participated its event. In addition, the DNA in Cambodia Type of project/year Total is active in proposing the CDM reform to the UNFCCC in order to Biogas further promote CDM in Least Developed Countries (LDCs). Hydro power 1 1 The potential area for CDM in Cambodia may be particularly the agricultural sector, where major emissions occur in Cambodia, Waste/heat gas utilisation 1 1 but the total emission level is not so large. Biomass 1 1 In general, risks for project implementation, which are common Total Source: Cambodia Climate Change Department < Recent activities in Cambodia Event Date Venue The 1 st National Forum on Climate Change Oct Phnom Penh in LDCs, may exist in Cambodia. As most projects are closely related to production in agricultural sector, those projects are highly vulnerable to the global market due to its export-oriented nature. Recent global economic recession also affects Cambodia. Hence, issuance of CERs from registered it projects arenot yet occurred, since the projects are implemented with some delay due to the recent global recession.

5 DNA Structure, Approval Procedure, and Criteria (1) DNA Structure DNA Board Policy makers (at least at the level of the Undersecretary of State) for the Board Members Ministry of Environment (MoE) Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (MAFF) Ministry of Industry, Mines and Energy (MIME) Ministry of Planning (MoP) Council for the Development of Cambodia (CDC) Ministry of Public Works and Transport (MPWT) DNA Secretariat The Cambodian Climate Change Department (CCD) of the MoE acts as the DNA Secretariat. Technical Inter-ministerial Working Group Source: Cambodia Climate Change Department. < The chair is the Minister of Environment and the vice-chair is elected from either MAFF or MIME. The Board evaluates proposed CDM projects submitted to Cambodia s DNA to determine whether the projects are to be approved or rejected. A proposed CDM project requires the approval of each member and also an approval letter that will be issued with the signature from the chair of the Board. The Secretariat receives project applications and checks if the Project Design Document (PDD) and other application documents are complete. Assessment using the sustainable development criteria will not be conducted by the Secretariat who are not allowed to ask for the resubmission of the project documents or to reject the project, based on such assessment. The Secretariat coordinates working groups, that assess the PDDs, and asks for the project participants to submit further information, if necessary. The Secretariat may also request domestic or international technical experts for assessment of the PDDs. The technical working group assesses the PDDs based on the sustainable development criteria. After an assessment, the technical working group submits a Project Technical Assessment Report to the DNA secretariat. The energy technical working group Representatives from MIME (renewable energy, planning and hydroelectricity) Representatives from MOE (CCD, environment impact assessment, and one other relevant department) Representative from the Royal University of Phnom Penh (RUPP) Representative from the Royal University of Agriculture (RUA) Representative from the Institut de Technologie du Cambodge Representative from the MPWT. The forestry technical working group Representatives from MAFF (Forest Administration, agronomy, planning) Representatives from MoE (CCD, environment impact assessment, e natural a conservation, ato one other relevant ee department), Representative from the RUPP Representative from the RUA * MIME and other relevant ministries are also invited, if necessary. 3

6 (2) DNA Approval Procedure 1. The application form is provided by Cambodia s DNA and required application documents should be submitted to the DNA Secretariat. The application documents are as follows.

After the 1 st meeting, the working group prepares the Project Technical Assessment Report (within 10days). After preparing the report, the 2 nd meeting will be held. The public consultation will be ended. 5. The DNA Secretariat prepares a final evaluation report for DNA Board members (within 10 days). After submitting the report, a DNA Board meeting will be organised. Reject/ Re-Submit No Decision by DNA Board Yes Issuance of approval letter 3. The inter-ministerial technical working group assesses the Source: Cambodia Climate Change Department. < htm> PDD and holds the meeting. 6. Each board member assesses the final evaluation report (within 10 days). After 10 days, a Board meeting is organised again and makes the final decision. 15 days 7. An approval letter or notification of rejection is prepared (within five days). 8. An approval letter is issued to project participants (total 45 days for issuance). 4

7 (3) DNA Approval Criteria A sustainable development matrix is used for the assessment of a project s contribution towards sustainable development. An inter- ministerial technical working group evaluates a proposed CDM project based on the SD compliance checklist and PDD prepared by project participants. Evaluation criteria are classified into four groups: economic, social, environmental, and technology transfer and each indicator is evaluated according to three ratings: positive, neutral, or negative. No project is allowed to receive negative points at any indicators. If the project receives a negative point, the project has to re-consider the design to satisfy the criterion and re-apply. Sustainable criteria are as follows.

20 CDM Project Information Since the establishment of the Indian DNA (Designated National Authority) in 2003, it has approved a significant number of projects. 506 projects have been registered by the CDM executive board, which account for about 20% of all the registered projects (as of 1 June 2010). In the initial stage of CDM development in India, biomass utilisation projects, waste gas/heat utilisation projects, and renewable energy (wind, hydro) projects were mainly being implemented. Other than those projects, India has various types of registered CDM projects that include energy efficiency (cement, steel and etc.), fuel switch, HFC reduction, N 2O decomposition, afforestation and reforestation, and transportation. CDM promotion cells have been established at a state level. They conduct supportive activities such as information dissemination on CDM and coordination between local and national governments. One of the features of CDM in India is its large share of unilateral CDM projects, CDM project developed by Indian stakeholders without the involvement (finance, technology) of Annex I countries. Indian project developers implement the project by bearing transaction costs of CDM and taking on the risks of the projects. Therefore, the price of credits issued by unilateral CDM projects tends to be higher than bilateral or multilateral CDM projects. 1.

21 DNA Structure, Approval Procedure, and Criteria (1)DNA Structure The Indian Designated National Authority is the National Clean Development Mechanism Authority (NCDMA), which consists of 6 ministries and agencies and the Planning Commission. The main role of the NCDMA is to evaluate and approve proposed projects and disseminate information related to all aspects of CDM. Chairperson Secretary, Ministry of Environment and Forests Member Foreign Secretary Finance Secretary Secretary, Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion Secretary, Ministry of Non-conventional Energy Sources Secretary, Ministry of Power Secretary, Planning Commission Joint Secretary, Climate Change, Ministry of Environment and Forests Member-Secretary Director, Climate Change, Ministry of Environment and Forests NCDMA has the powers: to invite officials and experts from Government, financial institutions, consultancy organizations, non-governmental organizations, civil society, legal profession, industry and commerce, as it may deem necessary for technical and professional inputs and may co-opt other members depending upon need. to interact with concerned authorities, institutions, individual stakeholders for matters relating to CDM. to take up any environmental issues pertaining to CDM or Sustainable Development projects as may be referred to it by the Central Government, and to recommend guidelines to the Central Government for consideration of projects and principles to be followed for according host country approval. al Source: CDM India < 19

22 (2)DNA Approval Procedure Approval procedures in India are straightforward and project developers could get host country approval letters within 60 days unless proposed projects have questions from NCDMA. An NCDMA meeting for project approval is held every month. Submission of PCN & PDD with 2 CDs and online submissions to NCDMA Circulation among NCDMA members 1. Project proponent is required to submit the following for application: Cover letter signed by the project sponsors Project Concept Note (PCN) (one submitted through online form and 20 hard copies) Project Design Document (PDD) (one submitted through online form and 20 hard copies) Two CDs containing PCN and PDD 2. Approval procedures in DNA are as follows 60 days Presentation by Project Proponents during NCDMA Meeting Clarification / additional information from Project Proponent if required by NCDMA members Host Country Approval Letter Source: CDM India < Application documents submitted by project proponent are circulated among NCDMA members. If NCDMA members have any preliminary queries the same is asked from the project proponents. The project proponent and his consultants are normally given days notice to come to the Authority meeting and give a brief power point presentation regarding their CDM project proposals. NCDMA members mainly evaluate if the project meets the national sustainable development priorities and seek clarifications during the presentation. In cases when it is requested by NCDMA members, the project proponent should prepare and submit some additional clarifications or information. Once the members of the Authority are satisfied, the Host Country Approval is issued. 20

29 Summary of Barrier Analysis (Biogas project) Typical arguments for barriers from PDD Investment barrier Existing system is significantly lower in capital and operating costs and also adhere to Indonesian government requirements. Proposed project does not provide the positive economic return in the absence of the CDM and CER from the proposed project will be only revenue. Technologies related biogas recovery and energy utilization in the proposed project is quite new and seen as high h risk with limited it performance guarantee. Technological barrier Barrier due to prevailing practice There is a need for skilled and experienced operators and the availability of such personnel locally is limited because biogas systems are still relatively rare. Despite numerous changes to maximum discharge standards over the years, the current technology is able to meet the current permitted discharge levels. The highest priority for most palm oil mills is to simply maintain compliance with local regulation. Note: The listed arguments are based on the registered biogas projects in Indonesia. The list does not involve all arguments described in the PDDs.

41 CDM Project Information Summary of Barrier Analysis for Biogas (Animal Waste) Barrier Typical arguments for barriers from PDD Investment barrier Lack of knowledge and experience with a biological treatment of animal wastewater technology prevents investment to the project Unfair financing treatment accorded to renewable energy technologies, which is shorter repayment periods than conventional energy in the host country The current system represents the lowest cost option, with the only cost being the opportunity cost of alternative land use. Technological barrier Barrier due to prevailing practice A biological treatment of animal wastewater technology is a new and relatively unknown technology in the host country. The predominant technology for piggery wastewater treatment in the Philippines is a lagoon-based system. Anaerobic digestion systems are perceived as relatively high risk, being based upon the function of a biological system that is neither 100% characterised, nor performance guaranteed. The highest priority for commercial farms is the management of their waste discharges to simply maintain compliance with local regulation. From the project farm operator s perspective, the existing lagoon system is a cheap and sufficient way to clean the wastewater. Note: The listed arguments are based on the PDDs of registered biogas (Animal waste) projects in the Philippines. The list does not involve all arguments described in the documents.
