24MW Power Generation from Coking Waste Heat Generated in the Clean-type Heat-recovery Coke Ovens at Shanxi Sinochem Wonder Industries Co. Ltd.

Audit Analysis

A CDM energy-efficiency project generating 24 MW from coking waste heat, validated by DNV with a confirmed combined additionality test. However, the absence of a verified ERR figure, contradictory leakage justifications between the validation and monitoring reports, and 17 validation comments (plus 2 corrective actions) indicate meaningful data gaps and unresolved baseline questions that limit confidence in the credit claims.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠Total verified ERR is not available in any extracted document, making it impossible to confirm whether the project delivered on its 967,862 tCO₂e lifetime claim
• ⚠Leakage justification is contradictory: the validation report (2008) states leakage was deemed negligible while the monitoring report (2012) states it was quantified, yet the deduction is 0% in both cases
• ⚠17 validation comments (CLs) and 2 corrective actions (CARs) were raised, including missing DNA approval letters and unresolved baseline scenario questions, indicating a project that required substantial remediation before registration
• ⚠Crediting period dates differ between the validation report (2008-05-15 to 2014-05-14) and the monitoring report (2008-07-18 to 2015-07-17), a discrepancy of over two months at each end
