Audit Analysis
A 1.5 MW captive wind project in Gujarat, India, registered under CDM with a standard grid-emission-factor baseline and VVB-confirmed investment additionality. The project is technically sound with all corrective actions closed, but the absence of a verified ERR figure and a ten-fold discrepancy in claimed emissions reductions across documents create meaningful transparency and claim-safety concerns.
Red Flags
- A ten-fold discrepancy in the claimed emissions reduction figure (29,770 tCO2e in the PDD vs. 2,977 tCO2e in an unidentified document) undermines confidence in the credit quantity.
- No verified ERR figure was found in any available document, leaving the actual delivered reductions unconfirmed.
- The grid emission factor is fixed at the 2012 value (0.9534 tCO2/MWh) with no evidence of periodic updating, which may overstate reductions if the grid has decarbonised since.
Credit Vintages
