3.3 MW Bundled Wind power project at Theni, Tamilnadu

Audit Analysis
A standard CDM grid-connected wind project with a VVB-verified investment additionality test, a jurisdictional (grid emission factor) baseline, and no permanence or leakage concerns typical of wind generation. All ten material findings raised during validation were documentation or clarification issues that were corrected before issuance. The project is well-documented with high extraction confidence across seven source documents, though safeguards detail (FPIC, grievance mechanism) is thin.
Red Flags
- Safeguards are mentioned in the PDD but FPIC and grievance mechanism details are not found in the extracted record, leaving community engagement evidence incomplete.
- Grid emission factor of 0.916 tCO₂/MWh is fixed from 2011; if the Indian grid has decarbonised since then, the per-MWh credit may overstate actual displacement, though this is standard CDM practice at approval.
