42.5 MW Wind Power Project by BPCL in Karnataka

Audit Analysis

This 42.5 MW wind project in Karnataka claims 770,665 tCO2e over an 8-year crediting period under the UCR registry, but the evidence base is critically thin: only a single PDD (dated 2024, after the crediting period ended) is available, no verification body is identified, no verified ERR figure exists, and no additionality test is documented. The claimed reductions are arithmetically plausible for the installed capacity, but without independent verification the project cannot be considered credibly quantified.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠PDD is dated 2024-09-05, which is after the crediting period ended (2023-12-31), suggesting retroactive or post-hoc documentation rather than a forward-looking project design
• ⚠No verification body (VVB) is identified in any available document, and no verified ERR figure exists — the 770,665 tCO2e claim is entirely unverified
• ⚠No additionality test type or VVB confirmation of additionality is documented, a fundamental requirement for any carbon credit project
• ⚠Only one document (the PDD) forms the entire evidence base; no verification report, monitoring report, or VVB audit is available
