Analysis

This Gold Standard biomass power plant project in Haryana, India has a VVB-verified investment additionality test and no critical findings, but is undermined by six corrective action requests, a 15-year-old grid emission factor (2009) applied to a 2024 monitoring period, a 0% leakage deduction labelled 'quantified,' and eight cross-document contradictions including a material discrepancy in claimed ERR figures (113,457 vs 250,625). The absence of a buffer pool, unaddressed reversal risk, and CORSIA eligibility without a stated CCP status create meaningful over-crediting and dual-channel exposure.

Eligibility & market

What can you claim with this credit?

Four checks buyers ask about, from the registry and the Integrity Council (ICVCM).

  • Airlines (CORSIA)

    Stated in the project documents

    The documents claim CORSIA eligibility, but no registry label confirms it: check vintage and authorization.

    Source: project documents (not confirmed by the registry) · documents analysed on 1 Sep 2026

    Covers: what the project documents state — not a registry record

  • Integrity label (ICVCM CCP)

    Methodology not approved by ICVCMAMS-I.D

    The Integrity Council assessed this methodology as not meeting the Core Carbon Principles.

    Source: ICVCM assessment · ICVCM table read on 4 Oct 2026

    Covers: the methodology (every project using it), not this project's credits

  • Removal or reduction

    Emission reduction or avoidance

    Prevents or reduces emissions — fits contribution claims, not SBTi neutralisation.

    Source: registry label · read on 2 Nov 2026

    Covers: the project type, not a label on individual credits

  • Paris Agreement (Article 6)

    Not published

    This registry does not publish Article 6 authorizations.

Information only, from public sources. Claim rules (CORSIA, SBTi, EU rules on green claims) change: check them before making a public claim. Since 27 September 2026, EU consumer rules do not allow “climate neutral” product claims based on offsets.
