CCIPL was contracted by Desilyon Danışmanlık Ticaret A.Ş for project verification of the project activity “Gümüşören Dam and Hydro Power Plant” in Turkey. The project verification was performed based on rules and requirements defined by GCC for the project activity.
The project activity is a hydro power project, which results in reductions of CO2e emissions that are real, measurable and give long-term benefits to the mitigation of climate change. It is demonstrated that the project is not a likely baseline scenario and the emission reductions attributable to the project are, hence, additional to any that would occur in the absence of the project activity. The project correctly applies the approved baseline and monitoring AMS.I.D version 18.0 and is assessed against latest valid PS, VS and Environment and Social Safeguards Standard, Project-Sustainability-Standard and/or other applicable GCC/CDM Decisions/Tools/Guidance/Forms.
The project activity is likely to achieve the anticipated emission reductions stated in the PSF provided the underlying assumptions do not change. The expected emission reductions (annual average) from the project activity are estimated to be 6,727 tCO2e/year over the 10 years crediting period starting from 01/09/2018.
CCIPL has informed the project owners of the project verification outcome through the draft project verification report and final project verification report. The final project verification report contains the information with regard to fulfilment of the requirements for project verification, as appropriate.
CCIPL applied the following verification process and methodology using a competent verification team;
• the desk review of documents and evidence submitted by the project owner in context of the reference GCC rules and guidelines issued,
• undertaking/conducting site visit, interview, or interactions with the representative of the project owner,
• reporting audit findings with respect to clarifications and non-conformities and the closure of the findings, as appropriate
• preparing a draft verification opinion based on the auditing findings and conclusions
• technical review of the draft project verification opinion along with other documents as appropriate by an independent competent technical review team
• finalization of the project verification opinion (this report)
Carbon Check (India) Private Limited (CCIPL) has verified and hereby certifies that the GCC project activity “Gümüşören Dam and Hydro Power Plant”
