Monitoring of bundled small-scale projects

Bundled projects may have an overall monitoring plan or a separate monitoring plan for each project activity:

If project activities are bundled, a separate monitoring plan shall apply for each of the constituent project activities in accordance with paragraphs 32 and 33 above, or an overall monitoring plan shall apply for the bundled projects, as determined by the designated operational entity at validation to reflect good monitoring practice appropriate to the bundled project activities and to provide for collection and archiving of the data needed to calculate the emission reductions achieved by the bundled project activities (4/CMP.1, Annex II, paragraph 34).

If an overall monitoring plan is used, it must be implemented and each verification and certification (based on the monitoring plan) will cover all bundled activities:

If bundled project activities are registered with an overall monitoring plan, this monitoring plan shall be implemented and each verification/certification of the emission reductions achieved shall cover all of the bundled project activities (4/CMP.1, Annex II, paragraph 19).

The overall monitoring plan may use sampling to monitor bundled project activities:

An overall monitoring plan that monitors performance of the constituent project activities on a sample basis may be proposed for bundled project activities (4/CMP.1, Annex II, paragraph 19).
