Audit Analysis
A 199.70 MW wind energy project in Maharashtra with a sound additionality assessment (investment test, VVB-verified) and an appropriate jurisdictional grid-emission-factor baseline. The project is an avoidance-type credit with minimal permanence risk, and the most recent monitoring period shows claimed and verified ERR figures matching exactly. However, the grid emission factor dates to 2014, several data fields show internal contradictions within the same verification report, and the overall documentation record carries medium extraction confidence.
Red Flags
- Grid emission factor of 0.977 tCO2/MWh is from 2014, making it approximately 10 years old at the time of the September 2024 verification report; no evidence of an updated grid EF was found in the extracted record.
- Eight contradictions were identified across documents, including four (FPIC, grievance mechanism, benefit-sharing, safeguards) showing conflicting true/false values within the same verification report dated 2024-09-21, suggesting data-extraction or internal-reporting inconsistencies.
- Leakage justification is recorded as 'not_addressed' in the 2024 verification report, contradicting the 2021 report's 'not_applicable' classification; while 0% leakage is technically appropriate for a grid-connected wind project, the lack of an explicit justification statement is a documentation gap.
