Audit Analysis
A 4.5 MW bundled wind project in Karnataka, India, verified under CDM with a reputable VVB (TÜV Rheinland Japan) and a jurisdictional grid-emission-factor baseline. Additionality was confirmed via an investment test and all four validation-stage corrective actions were resolved, but the fixed 2009 grid emission factor, absence of CORSIA/CCP clarity, and several unreported transparency fields limit confidence in the full picture.
Red Flags
- Grid emission factor fixed at the 2009 value (0.9448 tCO2e/MWh) with no evidence of periodic reassessment; if the Indian grid has decarbonised since 2009, the per-MWh reduction claim may be overstated.
- CORSIA eligibility and CCP status are not stated in any available document, leaving the double-claiming risk unassessed.
- The 2013 monitoring report lists a crediting period of 2011-06-22 to 2021-06-21, while the 2022 monitoring report states 2012-06-22 to 2020-12-31; the one-year shift in both start and end dates is unexplained in the extracted record.
