27.5 MW Biomass Based Grid Connected Electricity Generation Project in DCM Shriram, Ajbapur Plant

Audit Analysis

This 27.5 MW biomass power project in Uttar Pradesh, India, is registered under the UCR standard using CDM methodology ACM0006 v16.0, but the available record consists solely of a PDD dated September 2023 with no verification, monitoring, or VVB reports. Critical integrity elements — additionality testing, VVB identity, baseline reassessment, and permanence safeguards — are absent from the extracted record, and the 0% leakage deduction rests on a thin 'quantified' justification. The claimed lifetime ERR of 151,372 tCO₂ appears conservative relative to the plant's nameplate capacity, but without verified monitoring data the claim cannot be independently corroborated.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠No verification or monitoring report is present in the record; the sole document is a PDD dated 2023-09-28, leaving the entire 2015–2023 operational history unverified.
• ⚠Additionality test type and VVB confirmation are not stated in the extracted record, and no VVB name is identified, making it impossible to confirm that additionality was independently assessed.
• ⚠Permanence risk is unaddressed: no buffer pool percentage is stated and no reversal-event history is available for the full eight-year crediting period.
• ⚠Leakage deduction is 0% with only a one-word 'quantified' justification; no supporting calculation or narrative is found in the available document.
