The project proponent shall adhere to all instructional text within the template.” Section 2.4 of the VCS Joint Project Description and Monitoring Report Template, v3.1requires project proponents to identify the baseline scenario in accordance with the procedure set out in the applied methodology and relevant tools. Section 2.4 of the project description states, “The benchmark has been considered in accordance with Guidance 17 and 18 of Tool 57.” However, the tool used is Tool 27Methodological Tool: Investment Analysis. In addition, Section 2.4 states, “As the project is located in Thailand, therefore, the applicable geographical area is Thailand and projects in the host country India have been chosen for analysis.” However, the project proponent has identified Thailand as the host country for the location of the project activity. The VVB is therefore requested to clarify these errors. Please update all documents accordingly.

It specifies that if the project activity involves the installation of a Greenfield power plant (in this case, wind turbine generators (WTGs) to harness wind power), the baseline scenario would be the electricity that would have otherwise been generated by grid-connected power plants and by the addition of new generation sources. This scenario reflects in the combined margin calculations, focusing on the electricity supply from the Thailand National grid that would have been more carbon-intensive, primarily from fossil fuel-fired plants. This description relies on the \"Tool to calculate the emission factor for an electricity system\" (Version 7.0) to calculate the combined margin (CM) representing the baseline emissions factor for the grid (original text: \"as reflected in the combined margin (CM) calculations\").\n\n**Relevance**: Directly relevant and provides a clear outline of the baseline scenario for a wind power project, including its methodological foundation and geographical specificity.\n\n### Project ID: 3425\n\n**Baseline Scenario Explanation:**\nFor Project ID: 3425, the baseline scenario involves severely degraded land due to illegal farming, logging, and overexploitation, which in the absence of the project, would continue leading to further degradation, bushfires, and destruction of fauna and flora. This scenario is identified using a combined tool for A/R CDM project activities (Version 01), demonstrating that without the project, the land would remain degraded and contribute to lower carbon sequestration, highlighting a non-intervention scenario where environmental degradation and loss of biodiversity would persist.\n\n**Relevance**: Directly relevant, providing insights into the baseline scenario for a large-scale A/R project that deals with land restoration and carbon sequestration.\n\n### Comparison and Contrast:\n\n- **Project Scope and Focus**: Project ID 2000 focuses on renewable energy generation (wind power), aiming to offset carbon emissions by preventing the generation of electricity from more carbon-intensive sources. In contrast, Project ID: 3425 addresses land use, specifically afforestation/reforestation (A/R), aimed at carbon sequestration and biodiversity restoration on previously degraded land.\n\n- **Baseline Scenario Determination**: The methodological approach to defining the baseline scenario in Project ID 2000 is centered around electricity generation comparison and grid emission factors. For Project ID: 3425, the baseline is defined by the condition of land (degraded land) and its potential for negative environmental impact if left unmanaged, using different tools and methodologies (A/R CDM project activities tools).\n\n- **Geographical Context**: Project ID 2000 specifies a geographical focus on Thailand, referencing national grid emission factors. Project ID: 3425, although not explicitly stating its geographical location in the provided text, deals with land restoration, indicating a focus on biodiversity and ecosystem restoration that might not be limited to a single national context but addresses a specific locality's environmental needs.\n\n- **Baseline Emission Factors Calculation**: For Project ID 2000, the baseline emission factor is calculated using combined margin (CM) from specific tools, focusing on grid emissions. For Project ID: 3425, the baseline scenario involves an assessment of degraded land and its potential negative impacts, focusing on carbon stocks and sequestration potential rather than direct emission factors.\n\nThese contrasting approaches reflect the diverse strategies and methodologies applied in carbon projects, tailored to their specific environmental impacts and project goals, ranging from renewable energy to ecosystem restoration."
