The
Twenty-first Meeting of the Executive Committee, having considered the
recommendations of the Sub-Committee on Project Review on the basis to be used
to calculate production and consumption of an enterprise when conversion was
presented and funded in two phases, and for the determination of the level of
grant when an enterprise opted to collect incremental operating costs after the
project had been implemented, decided:
(a) for projects in the domestic refrigeration
sector for which incremental operating costs were to be sought after the
project had been implemented, the production level to be used for the
calculation of incremental operating costs is the level prior to preparation of
the project as specified in the approved project proposal;
(b) for multi-phase projects that involve a
development phase and a separate phase to convert production facilities, the
production level to be used for the calculation of incremental operating costs
is that of the second phase, in which the production facilities are converted.
ODS consumption should be calculated in accordance with the decision taken by
the Executive Committee at its Sixteenth Meeting (UNEP/OzL.Pro/ExCom/16/20,
para. 32 (b)) to use consumption in the year, or the average of the three
years, immediately preceding preparation of the second-phase conversion
project;
(c) for any other multi-phase project, the
production levels, ODS consumption and operating costs should be calculated
separately for each phase, in accordance with the requirements of the decision
of the Sixteenth Meeting referred to in subparagraph (b) above, provided that
the overall level of funding for the enterprise does not exceed the maximum
level available under the threshold funding cap calculated using the ODS
consumption presented in the first phase of the project;
(d) noting the presumption in decision 19/9
adopted by the Executive Committee at its Nineteenth Meeting against the
submission of multi-phase projects, proposals for any future multi-phase
projects should include full justification for use of this modality;
(e) production capacity should be considered in a
manner consistent with decision 17/7 adopted by the Executive Committee at
its Seventeenth Meeting. Thus, production capacity installed after 25 July 1995
should not be taken into consideration when determining the production level,
the ODS phase-out, or the operating cost in any multi-phase project.
(UNEP/OzL.Pro/ExCom/21/36,
Decision 21/6, para. 14).
