1.5 MW Small Scale Hydro Power project by M/S Saini Techno-Construct Pvt. Ltd, Himachal Pradesh

Audit Analysis

A 1.5 MW small-scale hydro project in Himachal Pradesh registered under the UN Carbon Registry (UCR-76) using the AMS-I.D methodology. The project design is sound in principle — jurisdictional baseline, reasonable grid emission factor, and a low-reversal-risk technology — but the available record consists of only the PDD, with no verification reports, monitoring reports, or quantified emission reduction figures, leaving the project's actual performance and additionality unconfirmed in the extracted data.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠No verification or monitoring reports are present in the extracted record; only the PDD (dated 2022-01-17) was used, so actual emission reductions and compliance with the methodology cannot be independently confirmed.
• ⚠The PDD date (17 January 2022) post-dates the end of the crediting period (31 December 2021), which is unusual and may indicate a late registration, a document revision, or a data-extraction anomaly that warrants clarification.
• ⚠Additionality test type and verification status are not stated in the extracted record, leaving a gap in confirming that the project met the AMS-I.D additionality criteria (investment test, regulatory barrier, etc.).
