ANNEX-A (Term of References)
TERMS OF REFERENCE FOR INDEPENDENT COMPLIANCE AUDITING SERVICES
1. Background
Quaid-e-Azam Solar Power (Pvt.) Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as the “Client”) is a company owned
by Government of Punjab. The Client has established a 100MW Solar PV power plant at Bahawalpur
Punjab. The power plant achieved its Commercial Operations Date (COD) on 15-July-2015. The
Operations and Maintenance of power plant is being carried out by TBEA Xinjiang SUNOASIS Co.
(hereinafter referred to as the “Contractor”) which is the EPC and O&M Contractor for this project.
Client & Contractor desire to hire the services of a Consulting Company to provide Independent
Compliance Auditing Services to supervise O&M Contractor as per the provisions of Agreement of
Engineering Procurement Construction and Operation & Maintenance “Agreement” between Client
and Contractor.
The independent auditing body is defined in the Contract between QA Solar and TBEA as per sub-
clause 21.2 of Particular Conditions of the Contract.
21.2 Independent Compliance Audit

At least 28 days prior to the commencement of the O&M Works, the Employer and the
Contractor shall jointly appoint the Auditing Body (Independent Consultant) to carry out an
independent and impartial audit during the O&M Works. The terms of appointment of the
Auditing Body (Independent Consultant) shall be mutually agreed between the Employer and the
Contractor. The purpose will be to audit and monitor the performance of both the Employer and
the Contractor during the O&M Works Period in compliance with the Employer's Requirements
and the terms of the Contract. If the Parties cannot agree on the appointment of the Auditing
Body (Independent Consultant), the matter shall be referred to the Chief Executive Officer's of
the Parties. Such person shall make the appointment and notify the Parties accordingly.
The Auditing Body (Independent Consultant) shall commence its duties on the same date as the
O&M Works commences.
The remunerations to the Auditing Body (Independent Consultant) shall be shared equally and
shall be mutually agreed upon by the Employer and the Contractor when agreeing the Terms of
Appointment.
Both Parties shall cooperate with the Auditing Body (Independent Consultant) and give due
regard to the matters raised in each report issued by the Auditing Body.
Apart from the above task, testing and calibrations are to be supervised/monitored by the
same Auditing Body/Independent Party /3rd Party, as per contract between QA Solar and
TBEA. The independent Auditing Body shall perform task as per the letter and spirit of the
EPC and O&M Contract. These tasks include but not limited to the following task:
 Calibration of weather station as per EPC and O&M Agreement Clause ER 1.10.
1.10 Meteorological Sensors

1.10.1 Irradiation and temperature measurements are to be recorded at intervals of fifteen
minutes or less. Particular care must be taken, that the measurement equipment fits to the
environmental conditions of the area. The equipment should have the capability of recording and
storing data for 24 hours using auxiliary DC power.
1.10.2 The irradiation measurement equipment should be calibrated by an independent

certified third party at least every two years. The calibration must be traceable to international
standards. Seven pyranometers shall be placed per System: three for measuring the horizontal
plane irradiation and the others for the in plane irradiation. The pyranometers should conform
to the standards of ISO 9060 (SR5: secondary standard) or the WMO classification, and IEC
60904. Thermopile sensors are preferable to silicon photodiodes. A sensor calibration tolerance
of within +I- 2% is expected, given the importance of this measurement to the PR calculation
adjustment. Contemporary best-in-class commercial specifications are shown in Schedule A. The
ground based sensor data is to be supplemented with satellite data to quantify longer term
variations (e.g., from NASA's Surface Meteorology and Solar Energy data set).
1.10.3 Ambient air and the module temperature shall be measured at every 5 installed MWp
in conformity with IEC 6075 I AA. Particular care shall be taken about the method of attaching
the temperature sensor on the back of the module. The dependence of the System and sub-systems
performance on temperature variations should be characterized by the SCADA.
1.10.4 A weather monitoring station at a minimum of four different locations per System
shall be provided with redundant humidity sensors, a rain gauge, and a wind profiling
unit/anemometer (speed and direction), preferably capable of data telemetry or other electronic
connectivity to the SCADA server. The environmental analysis is important to understand any
unexpected degradation effects in the modules or other system components.
1.10.5 The use of consolidated measuring equipment, supported by an integrated UPS, with
the abovementioned functionality and modelling software capable of predictive functions will be
required.
Any 3rd party cost on account of this calibration shall be payable by TBEA (O&M Contractor) on. 3rd
party invoices duly certified by the Independent Auditing Body will be proof enough for the purpose
of reimbursement.
 To determine the annual PR in terms of Clause 1.5.5
"The determination of the annual PR will be done by a qualified independent party which also
operates the meteorological stations in the plant."
 The on-site monitoring as per Clause 2.9 shall be monitored by the Independent Auditing Body
on a continuous basis for reliable measurements and analysis of performance.
2.9 Onsite Monitoring

Note: The data of irradiation sensors shall be monitored by an independent expert on a
continuous basis for reliable measuring data/or analysis of performance
 To determine the amount of Liquidated Damages for Shortfall Energy in terms of Clause 1.4.5
While the Applicant is performing the O&M and the annual measured PR falls below the
guaranteed PR value according to Table 1.3.1, the liquidated damages will be levied on the
successful Applicant at the rate of USD 0.20-per-kWh or the kWh Value the Employer receives
for each kWh of shortfall – whichever is higher. Adjustments shall be made for any events
outside the control of the O&M operator as grid outages, from grid operator ordered
shutdowns, or force majeure events during the year. In case the PR is higher than the
guaranteed PR value, the net value of this excess energy will be shared as follows:
i. 50% towards the asset replacement fund

ii. 25% towards the Employer
iii. 25% towards the O&M contractor
For timely compensation the above procedure will be carried out provisionally for each
quarter whereby the contractor and employer might jointly agree on different PR values for
each quarter. In the last quarter of each calendar year the annual PR compensation of the full
year will be carried out and any provisions will be offset by the annual compensation.
 To determine the amount of Liquidated Damages in case O&M Contractor defaults to provide
the O&M services in terms of Clause 1.4.6
If the successful Applicant defaults in being able to provide the O&M services required for the
Systems performance guarantee, then it will be liable to cover all costs – but at least in the
amount of LDs imposed to the Employer by its PPA agreements - incurred by the Employer,
including the loss of the guaranteed electricity export to the grid (but at a minimum rate of
USD 0.20-per-kWh) for the disrupted period, in finding and hiring a replacement for the
purpose.
2. Scope of Work
The Scope of work of the Consulting Company shall, inter alia, include:
(a) To review and ensure the Calibration of Pyranometers in terms of EPC and O&M
Agreement.
