If I am developing a new methodology, what are the VCS additionality requirements it must meet?
The VCS 2007.1 sets out the requirements for additionality, providing three types of additionality tests (project test, performance test and technology test). It is important to note that these additionality requirements are in no way an additionality tool. New VCS methodologies must provide a full method for demonstrating and assessing additionality, based upon the VCS 2007.1 additionality requirements. For example, one way to do this would be for the methodology to reference and explicitly require the use of the CDM Tool for the Assessment and Demonstration of Additionality. Developers may also develop their own approaches and tools for the demonstration and assessment of additionality.
