Audit Analysis

A 32 MW CDM hydropower project in China with a jurisdictional baseline and a 7-year crediting period (2019–2026). The validation report identified a material finding on the build-margin emission factor calculation, and the extracted record lacks monitoring data, additionality test details, and any buffer or permanence mechanism. Overall a moderate-quality project with notable documentation gaps and one unresolved calculation concern.

Red Flags

  • Material finding (CAR-1): build-margin emission factor calculation was not aligned with the CDM Tool v7.0, requiring a corrective action to update the baseline calculation
  • No monitoring reports appear in the evidence set; the monitoring period is not stated, so actual generation versus claimed credits cannot be independently verified
  • Additionality test type and VVB confirmation are not documented in the extracted record, leaving the additionality claim unverified

Credit Vintages

No issuances recorded on the registry.
