The baseline for a CDM project activity is the scenario that reasonably represents the anthropogenic emissions by sources of greenhouse gases that would occur in the absence of the proposed project activity. The baseline for a CDM project activity can only be established on the basis of a baseline methodology approved by the Executive Board of the CDM. The basis on which developers of CDM projects propose to claim CERs, showing how their project reduces emissions, compared with a business-as-usual scenario. Developers can either propose a new methodology, or use or adapt one that has already been approved by the Executive Board of the CDM.
CO2 baseline Database for the Indian Power Sector (Ver 1.1 March 2007) Source: GTZ-Climate Change Unit India is the first country in the world to have ventured to take up the complex task of developing an official baseline for the Indian power sector. CEA in cooperation with GTZ CDM-India has complied CO2 emissions data for all grid-connected power stations in India. The database currently covers the five fiscal years 2000-01 to 2004-05. This table below is provided to ensure uniformity in CO2 emission reductions by CDM project developers. Table: | | Average | OM | BM | CM | | North | 0.72 | 0.98 | 0.53 | 0.75 | | East | 1.05 | 1.17 | 0.90 | 1.04 | | South | 0.79 | 1.00 | 0.72 | 0.86 | | West | 0.92 | 1.01 | 0.78 | 0.89 | | North East | 0.46 | 0.81 | 0.10 | 0.45 | | India | 0.84 | 1.02 | 0.70 | 0.86 |
Average is the average emissions of all stations in the grid OM is the average emission from all the stations excluding the low cost/must run sources BM is the average emission of the 20% (by net generation) most recent capacity addition in the grid CM is a weighted average of the OM and BM
