Baseline & Project
Baseline Case
Diesel to run the
mill
Project Case
Water to run the
millTWM does not meet the growing demand

Technology of the Project
IWM is a modified version ofthe TWM which translates intoa higher agro-processing
capacity and possibility ofproviding a diverse range ofservices like hulling, oilexpelling, saw milling etc.
Higher efficiency than TWM

Improved Water Mills Project Details (1)
Aims to discourage possible installation of dieselmills in the mid hills of Nepal.
Financial Mix: subsidy, equity, loan and CERrevenue
Program period: 4-5 years, commencing fromSept 2011.

Improved Water Mills CDM Details (2)
Project being developed under the PoA approachwith each CPA not exceeding 5MW capacity
Applied Methodology: AMS I.B/version 10
Expected emission reductions :6.22tCO2/year/IWM
Additionality demonstrated using Guidelines fordemonstrating additionality of micro-scale project
activities

Improved Water Mills CDM Details (3)
Host Country Approval on PIN has been receivedfor the project
Baseline study has been conducted and PoA DDand CPA DD are being finalized
DOE has been selected for the project
Validation to be initiated from the last week ofSeptember 2011

Sustainable Development Impacts
At least 8000 IWM owners will increase their income from IWMby providing efficient services to rural households.
Some households will have access to electricity.
Employment generation (IWM operator, installer,
manufacturers, & so on) Reduce drudgery on hulling activities & waiting mainly of
women will be reduced.
Annually 38,000 T of CO2 emissions reduction for 10 years.
A number of women and people from socially excluded stratawill be capacitated through IWM training activities.
Etc.

Challenges
Neither this type of CDM project or PoA have
got registered not in pipeline
1 project (irrigation) applied this methodology
was rejected
1 project (irrigation) applied this
methodology was withdrawn

Challenges in developing the PoAs
Individual activities that are installed/implemented prior tothe start of the validation cannot be included in the PoA.
Additionality tool does not explicitly mention methods fordemonstration of the additionality at the PoA or CPA level
Poor response from DOE regarding the validation of thePoA
High transaction cost (DD, Validation & verification)
High up-front cost for developing the PoA
