CDM-SSC-PDD (version 02) CDM – Executive Board page 3 SECTION A. General description of the small-scale project activity A.1. Title of the small-scale project activity: >> 3.76 MW Electricity Generation Project from Poultry Litter , in Tamilnadu , India. Version 02 Date: Dec 15 , 2005 A.2. Description of the small-scale project activity: >> Poultry Litter to electricity generation is a pioneering environmentally friendly technique for waste management and power generation as well. This project activity is sponsored by Subhashri Bioenergies Pvt Ltd , Thiruchengode , Namakkal District , Tamil Nadu , India. The project involves following specific steps:

- Collection of Poultry Litter and recovery of methane from the litter using high rate biomethanation technology

- Generation of electricity using methane and connect to state owned grid - To produce manure from the residue of the digested litter

The first step in this technology is collecting poultry litter in primary collection tanks and wash and segregate non –digestible waste. The washed litter is then pumped to the digester for biomethanation. The bio-gas that is generated in the digester is washed and scrubbed and stored intermediately in a gas holder .From the gas holder it is drawn to 3.76 MW engine for generation of power. The schematic diagram of the technology employed is shown in section A 4.2 The conversion of Poultry –litter into power generation has following advantages:

- The current practice of uncontrolled storage of poultry litter , which will generate methane and Nitrous oxide , is brought under control. In the proposed system the litter is periodically removed and transported to power plant.

- The hygienic condition for the birds is improved. - The litter slurry that remains as a residue after the methane generation is converted into manure. - The biogas that is generated is substituted for power generation with a calorific value of 5100-

5300 kcals / CUM. This project activity is one of pioneering efforts with the following environment friendly considerations.

• Better and efficient Animal waste management . . • Control of dumping of animal waste..


• Reduction in generation of anthropogenic emissions of GHG ( Methane and Nitrous Oxide) from dumping sites thereby developing it as a potential CDM project.

• Employment generation for the rural people. • Prevention of Contamination of soil due to volatilation of ammonia and NO3 • Prevention of Leachate polluting ground water resources. • Mitigation of Obnoxious odour in the surrounding areas. • Mitigation of Health hazards to people and birds causing respiratory diseases. • Saving the site from Breeding of pathogens, vermins and insects. • Reducing the Fly menace and insect production , that may cause several diseases. • Mitigating the increase in the level of Coliforms, Staphylococcus and Salmonella that will cause

Activity Key Specs Primary Collection 2 numbers of 5 M X 4.5 M X 11 M to hold 200 tons of poultry litter

Segregation Hydro Cyclone Separator and Spiral Separator

Digester Circular Steel Dome , 6000 Cum

Gas Cleaning Non Effluent Regenerating Scrubber

Engines Duetz make Gas engines of 1.275 KVA – 3 nos 12 Cylinder , 1500 RPM

The schematic diagram of the project is as shown below.

A.4.3. Brief explanation of how the anthropogenic emissions of anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHGs) by sources are to be reduced by the proposed small-scale project activity, including why the emission reductions would not occur in the absence of the proposed small-scale project activity, taking into account national and/or sectoral policies and circumstances: >> The proposed project activity reduces anthropogenic emission of greenhouse gas (GHGs) by two means.

- By avoiding uncontrolled dumping and storage of poultry waste to the tune of 320 tonnes per day


- By generating power using GHG neutral bio-gas resulting in the displacement of fossil-fuel generated power.

In the absence of the project activity , the poultry waste is kept in open dumping and removed once in six months. This is sold as a manure once in 6 months. This results in generation of methane and ammonia , due to uncontrolled anaerobic digestion. Refer figure Below

The absence of the project activity will also lead to additional load of power generation in the TNEB Grid,which is a part of Southern Grid, which is predominantly constituted by Coal and Gas based power stations. A.4.3.1 Estimated amount of emission reductions over the chosen crediting period: >>

A.4.5. Confirmation that the small-scale project activity is not a debundled component of a larger project activity: >> According to paragraph 2 of Appendix C to the Simplified Modalities and Procedures for Small – Scale CDM project activities (FCCC/CP/2002/7/Add.3), a small-scale project is considered a debundled Component of a large project activity if there is a registered small-scale activity or an application to register another small- scale activity.

CDM-SSC-PDD (version 02) CDM – Executive Board page 10 B.2 Project category applicable to the small-scale project activity: >> Justification of the choice of baseline methodology and its applicability to the project activity Type I – Category ID : The project activity is a renewable energy project which uses bio-gas generated from animal waste as a fuel and has a maximum output capacity of 3.76 MW Capacity which is less than 15 MW. The proposed output from the power plant is connected to the T.N.E.B grid, which is part of Southern Grid Type III – Category III D The project activity involves recovery of methane from poultry waste ( Agro Industry) and project emissions is less than 15 kilo tonnes of CO2e annually. The Baseline Scenario are as follows: The baseline scenario which points to generation of GHG in the absence of the project activity are as follows: Baseline

Description Information

Baseline 1

The GHG emissions by sources connected to Tamil Nadu Electricity Board Grid, which is part of Southern Grid (The Kwh Produced by the renewable generating unit multiplied by and emission coefficient)

Based on Emission Coefficient for TNEB Grid, which is part of Southern Grid

Baseline 2 Methane emissions from uncontrolled storage of animal waste

Based on the Methane Emission Factor for the Poultry Waste as per the guidelines of IPCC

The formulae for calculating the above baseline 1 and Baseline 2 are explained in section E. B.3. Description of how the anthropogenic emissions of GHG by sources are reduced below those that would have occurred in the absence of the registered small-scale CDM project activity: >> General Justification for application of small scale methodologies to the project activity:

CDM-SSC-PDD (version 02) CDM – Executive Board page 11 The installed capacity of the project is 3.76 MW, which is less than the limiting capacity of 15 MW and is thus eligible to use small-scale simplified methodologies. Further, the project activity is “generation of electricity for a grid system using biomass based on animal waste Hence, the type and category of the project activity matches with I.D. as specified in Appendix B of the indicative simplified baseline and monitoring methodologies for small-scale CDM project activities Project Additionality analysis Additionality of the of the Project presented in the following sections as per guidelines given Attachment A of appendix B Barrier Analysis

A) Investment Barriers:

Total Project Cost 246.9 INR Million Subsidy From MNES 60.00 INR Million Promoters Contribution 56.72 INR Million Loan From Financial 130.83 INR Million IRR 10.1% INR Million DSCR 1.2 INR Million

The acceptable IRR in the electrical industry is 16% where as the IRR from project activity is only 10.1% The acceptable DSCR for attractive investment proposal is 1.4 where as where as the IRR from project activity is only 1.2

** Note: The details of the Investment analysis will be provided to DOE B) Operational Barrier:

The smooth running of the power plant depends on continuous availability of the animal waste . This requires a complex logistics management system to transport the animal waste from different locations. More over operation and maintenance of the gas engine running on Bio Gas is expensive , as , compared to indigenous diesel generators.

C} Common Practice Analysis In Tamil Nadu generation of power from Bio-mass is either for grid connected use or captive use is very meagre percentage. The installed capacity of biomass plants will be less than 100 MW. Besides this , power generation from animal waste will be one of the first few of its kind in the state. There is no regulation or policy requirement for using a particular type of fuel. D) Technology Barrier:

CDM-SSC-PDD (version 02) CDM – Executive Board page 12 This is first project in India with indigenous technology of bio-methanation. This is accompanied by many technological uncertainties which will affect the profitability of the project. Impact of CDM Revenue:

- CDM revenues from C E R selling can be used for compensating the lower profitability of the project. - CDM revenues used better operation and maintenance of equipment. - CDM revenues will attract other players to put up power generation projects using renewable

energy sources. The project activity contributes to abetment of GHG emissions in two ways. 1. Management of poultry litter thereby avoiding the accumulation of poultry waste in poultry sites leading to generation of methane. Thus the project avoids generation of methane and GHG emission. 2. The poultry waste used for generation of power from a 3.76 MW installed capacity plant which is fed into the TNEB grid which is part of Southern Grid. The power generation is done through renewable sources (organic waste), which when fed into the grid replaces equivalent carbon dioxide generation from baseline scenario of the Southern grid. Therefore under business as usual circumstances both the generation of electricity (CO2 emissions) and Accumulation of poultry waste (CH4 emissions) would have continued. B.4. Description of how the definition of the project boundary related to the baseline methodology selected is applied to the small-scale project activity: >> The physical / geographical project boundary is schematically explained following diagram.

Management Structure: - Operation and Maintenance - Maintenance of Meters and Calibration - Calculation of Emission Figures - Local Environmental Care - Changes in project boundary - Documents and Records - Periodic Review meetings -

The project activity will be operated and managed by project sponsors who are also the project proponent. They will ensure the safe operation and a project manager will be allocated with the responsibility for safe operation of the plant and employees . The CDM biomass power project will abide by all regulatory and statutory requirements as prescribed under the state and central laws and regulations. To ensure such performance, the project sponsor will monitor all its activities and performance related to emission, discharge and solid waste generation, if any. SBEL will install meters that meet the Indian and regional electricity authority’s standards (with set calibration schedules)and wherever possible online monitoring systems to be able to measure and calculate actual creditable emission reduction in most transparent and relevant manner installed meters will be calibrated according to the maintenance schedule programmed at the start of the operation and refresh according to the plants performance requirement. All the monitoring data will be recorded and kept under safe custody of the power plant site manager. Also any change within the project boundary, such as change in spare and or equipment will be recorded and any change in the emission reduction due to such alteration will also be studied and recorded. Any addition in electricity generated will be informed to the relevant authority , though these additions will not be considered as any part of the power project and thus no benefits will be claimed under the same project. Such project can be qualified as another CDM project. . Systems based on ISO 9001:2000 will be implemented

CDM-SSC-PDD (version 02) CDM – Executive Board page 24 SECTION F.: Environmental impacts: F.1. If required by the host Party, documentation on the analysis of the environmental impacts of the project activity: >> The project activity manages proper disposal of 400 tonnes per day of poultry waste thereby reducing the generation of methane from open exposure of poultry waste . The power generated from the project activity is from poultry litter which is a renewable source of energy. Although such projects would not require detailed environment impact study - because the project itself helps in mitigating the impact of poultry waste on environment – some basic environmental issues have been considered.

Over and above that following approvals have been obtained. • Legal Consent from TNPCB ( Tamil Nadu Pollution Control) has been obtained for project

construction. This provides consent for Water and Air. • Legal Consent from TNPCB ( Tamil Nadu Pollution Control) has been obtained for project

operation also. • PPA from TNEB has been obtained. • Commissioning Certificate from TNEB will be obtained. ( This by regulation implies

conformance to environmental requirements also)

Basic Environmental Issues Considered are as follows:

SECTION G. Stakeholders’ comments: G.1. Brief description of how comments by local stakeholders have been invited and compiled: >> The land for carrying out project activity has been provided by SBEL. . The project site is surrounded by forest land with no habitation within 500 meters radial distance from the plant boundary. The project promoter and government representatives have contacted the owners of the neighbouring agriculture before implementation of the project activity. The neighbouring agriculture land owners were apprised of the project activity both by one-to-one meetings an written communication to the village governing council (Panchayats). G.2. Summary of the comments received: >> The following were the concerns / observations made by the local stakeholders mainly with respect to existing poultry conditions:

1. Ground Water degradation to be improved by removing Poultry Waste Periodically 2. Obnoxious Odour in Poultry and Possibly in the Power plant waste collection area. 3. Irritation to Eye if Poultry Waste is not Removed. ( The irritation is not there when the poultry

waste is removed regularly) 4. Noise / Sound level due to project activity and plant operation 5. Effect on crop quality and quantity due to project activity

CDM-SSC-PDD (version 02) CDM – Executive Board page 26 G.3. Report on how due account was taken of any comments received: >> The project promoter and government representatives assured them for following :

1. After the regular removal of waste is in practice , periodic testing of ground water quality will be done , and appropriate corrective actions will be taken.

2. Periodic removal of poultry waste will mitigate the effects of odour. In the power plant the waste collection area will be separated , provided enclosures wherever possible. Appropriate PPEs will be provided to the workers. Comments from the stake holders will be invited periodically on this matter and will be treated as external communications resolved

3. The poultry waste will be removed on a daily basis from the poultry farms. Periodic monitoring will be done on the health aspect of the employees through company appointed doctors.

4. The generators for production of power are based on latest state-of-art technology which will ensure that level of noise in the project vicinity will be under control. It will be ensured that no noise of power plant will be heard outside the project site and the same will be periodically monitored after commissioning.

5. Technically there will be no effect on the quality and quantity of the crop produced because of project activity, thus an assurance for the same is given.
