Analysis

The Kolar Biogas Project demonstrates a solid additionality assessment confirmed by the VVB and a quantified leakage treatment, but is undermined by the absence of a buffer pool, unaddressed reversal risk, and a project-specific baseline without a stated reassessment schedule. Multiple data contradictions across verification and monitoring reports, combined with low extraction confidence and self-reported usage monitoring, limit confidence in the reported figures. The project appears to be under-delivering relative to its pro-rata ex-ante expectation, which is conservative for claim safety.
