SPECIAL EMPHASIS – STEPS FOR IMPROVEMENT SPECIAL EMPHASIS – STEPS FOR IMPROVEMENT

Is the language clear and objective or does it require

improvement?

Does the methodology appear largely to be internally consistent?

Identify any inconsistencies ,if any?

Can more tools potentially be used?

For which emission sources could the calculation be simplified by

using conservative default values or discount factors?

Which emission sources may be insignificant and may thus be

omitted?

Are there any applicability conditions that could be deleted or

relaxed, e.g. by making conservative assumptions for the

calculation of emission reductions for the relevant project types?

Are there monitoring requirements which could be simplified or

replaced by the use of (conservative) default values?

Are there any issues which require urgent improvement of the

methodology (e.g. potential threats to environmental integrity)?

Can minor source of emissions be neglected ?
