16.45 MW bundled grid connected renewable energy project in Tamil Nadu, India

Audit Analysis

A standard CDM wind project (16.45 MW, Tamil Nadu) with a VVB-confirmed investment additionality test and a jurisdictional grid baseline, but the record is undermined by a ten-fold discrepancy in the claimed emission reductions between the PDD and the validation report, the absence of any monitoring-period data, and low extraction confidence across the document set. The project is past its 2020 crediting-period end, so no verified performance data is available to confirm actual delivery.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠Ten-fold discrepancy in total emission reductions: the validation report states 35,257 tCO₂e while the PDD states 352,570 tCO₂e for the same 10-year crediting period; arithmetic on the 16.45 MW capacity suggests the PDD figure is more plausible, but the VVB document is the higher-priority source, leaving the true figure uncertain.
• ⚠No monitoring-period data or verified emission reductions are present in the extracted record, so actual performance against the claimed figure cannot be assessed.
• ⚠Low extraction confidence across the document set means at least one key document was poorly readable, reducing reliability of all extracted values.
• ⚠Safeguards are mentioned but no FPIC process, grievance mechanism, or detailed stakeholder engagement record is documented.
