5.1 MW bundled Wind Power Project in Tirunelveli (Tamil Nadu)

Audit Analysis

A 5.1 MW CDM wind project in Tamil Nadu with a solid jurisdictional baseline, VVB-confirmed investment additionality, and no reversal risk typical of avoidance-type wind credits. The first monitoring period delivered approximately 102% of the pro-rata expectation, indicating no over-crediting. Several monitoring and eligibility details (FNRB, CORSIA, CCP) are not stated in the available documents, and minor contradictions between the PDD and monitoring report reduce confidence slightly.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠The validation report states a lifetime ERR of 117,000 tCO2 while the monitoring report reports 11,969 tCO2 for the first year — these are on different bases (10-year vs 1-year) but the discrepancy in the extracted record could mislead a reader who does not reconcile them.
• ⚠Leakage justification is inconsistent: the monitoring report states 'deemed negligible' while an appendix describes it as 'quantified' — the reconciliation is unclear.
• ⚠CORSIA eligibility and CCP status are not stated in any available document, leaving dual-channel risk unassessed.
• ⚠Only one year of monitoring data (2009–2010) is available out of a 10-year crediting period, limiting the ability to assess long-term performance.
