4.2 MW Wind Bundled Power Project in Rajasthan

Audit Analysis

A 4.2 MW wind project in Rajasthan under CDM with a standard investment-test additionality assessment and grid-emission-factor baseline. The project's fundamentals are sound for a wind avoidance project, but the available record is limited to validation and issuance documents with no monitoring or verification reports, and the extraction confidence is low. A contradiction in the baseline method description between the PDD and validation report adds a minor reliability concern.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠No monitoring or verification reports found in the extracted record; actual performance against the 72,520 tCO2e claim cannot be confirmed
• ⚠Baseline method described as 'project' in the validation report but 'jurisdictional' in the PDD — a contradiction that, while likely a labelling issue for a grid-displacement project, signals documentation inconsistency
• ⚠Minimum extraction confidence is rated low, meaning at least one key document was poorly readable and critical details may be missing
• ⚠Ten material findings were raised at validation (including investment-analysis assumptions, PLF justification, and stakeholder consultation evidence); although corrective actions are listed as resolved, the underlying assumptions were challenged by the VVB
