3 1 PROJECT DETAILS 1.1 Summary Description of Project The Bataan 2020 Inc MW Rice Hull Power Cogeneration Project is a cogeneration project developed by Bataan 2020 Inc. for a paper mill located in Barangay Gugo, Municipality of Samal in the province of Bataan, Philippines. The purpose of the project activity is to generate steam and electricity by means of using rice hulls as fuel and will help Philippines fulfill its goals of promoting sustainable development through economical, environmental and social means by generating renewable energy and reducing GHG emissions. In the project activity, rice hulls is combusted in boiler to generate heat (steam) which runs a steam turbine to provide thermal and electrical energy to the paper mill. The project is a rice hulls based cogeneration technology. The rice hulls will be sourced from rice millers within Bataan and in nearby provinces. From the covered rice hulls storage, rice hulls is fed to the belt conveyor going to the rice hulls silo, then to the boiler by a booster fan or primary air fan. The boiler applies an atmospheric fluidised bed combustion (AFBC) technology and the biomass fuel is fed via an overbed feeding system. The boiler produces 78 tons per hour (66 kg/cm2, 490ºC) of high-pressure steam, which is directly fed to the steam turbine. The turbine is a single unit controlled extraction cum condensing steam turbine that provides process steam at 30 tons per hour (9.5 kg/cm2) and generates 12.5 MW of electricity (gross output) for use by the whole paper mill. The auxiliary power requirements are approximately 1.75MW, resulting in a net electricity generation of approximately 10.75MW. Based on a 3-year historical electricity billing records, the power requirements for the Bataan 2020 manufacturing facility is approximately 10.4 MW. Excess electricity, if any, may be exported to the grid. The project activity displaces three (3) units of residual fuel oil fired backup boilers with a total steam generation capacity of 26 tons per hour at 9.5 bar, and two low-pressure rice hull fired boilers with steam generation capacity 15 tons per hour at 9.5 bar, each, with a total capacity of 30 tons per hour. The process steam requirements are approximately 30 tons per hour. Small amounts of coal might be used for boiler start-ups and during the rainy season due to wetting of rice hulls. The use of coal as a co-fired fuel is not envisaged in the project activity. In the event coal is used, it will be monitored, and accounted for as project emissions. The project was commissioned on 26 th July The total emission reductions for the monitoring period ( 26 th July 2009 to 10 th March 2011) amount to 25,359 tco 2 e. 1.2 Sectoral Scope and Project Type As per the relevant methodology applicable for small scale activities, this project falls in: Type 1: Renewable Energy Projects Category C: Thermal Energy Production With or Without Electricity Version 16, Sectoral Scope 01, EB 51.

In the current case, there are no leakage emissions considered due to the transport of Biomass because the distance covered is less than required (for the leakage to be considered). This is in line with para 29 of the version 16 of the referred methodology. Therefore, the values provided here are not to be considered relevant for arriving at emission reductions for the monitoring period.

21 3.3 Description of the Monitoring Plan This section details the steps to be taken to monitor on a regular basis the GHG emissions reductions from the project. The Monitoring Plan for this project has been developed to ensure that from the start, the project is well organized in terms of collecting and archiving complete and reliable data. CDM monitoring organization and management The organization of the monitoring team was created whereby all involved in the CDM project were assigned with clear roles and responsibilities. The Project Developer has a designated person-in-charge on site who has been responsible for monitoring emissions reductions of the project activity. All staff involved in the collection of data and records are coordinated by him. Data recording and records keeping arrangements Data were recorded at the appropriate frequency. The CDM monitoring manager was responsible for managing the collection, storage and archiving of all data and records. All relevant data was archived electronically, and backed up regularly. Data Quality Control and Quality Assurance Data and records were cross-checked by the project developer before it is stored and archived to identify possible errors or omissions. Thus, data was checked for anomalies and other monitoring issues before it was forwarded to the CDM consultant. Procedures have been developed to deal with possible monitoring data adjustments and uncertainties, as well as emergencies. Maintenance and Calibration of monitoring equipment All equipments were calibrated and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer s recommendations to ensure accuracy of measurements. Records of calibration and maintenance were retained as part of the data monitoring system. Staff training Training was conducted on site to ensure that staff was capable to perform their designated tasks at high standards. This included specific training before the start of commissioning and further as necessary to warrant that they understood the importance of complete and accurate data and records for data monitoring. Comprehensive on-the-job training on aspects on operations and maintenance were provided by the technology provider for a period of 24 months from the date of commissioning to the local engineers and staff to ensure knowledge transfer. In addition to this, qualified personnel were designated to handle and operate equipment and machinery at the project site. Project Activity Emissions Reductions Baseline emissions reductions were calculated based on the net electricity generated by the renewable energy generating unit multiplied by the grid emission factor. Deductions were made for project emissions due to consumption of coal, if any, and leakage due to transportation of biomass, when applicable. 21
