Audit Analysis

This 5 MW biomass power project under the UCR registry relies on a single PDD document with no verification report, monitoring report, or VVB identification available. While the methodology (ACM0006 v16.0) is well-established and the grid emission factor of 0.9 tCO₂/MWh is reasonable for the Indian grid, the absence of additionality evidence, a named verification body, and any verified emissions reduction figures creates significant uncertainty about the project's integrity and claim safety.

Red Flags

  • No verification body (VVB) is identified in any available document, and no additionality test type or VVB confirmation of additionality is recorded
  • Only a single PDD (dated 2024-06-20) is available; no verification report, monitoring report, or VVB audit report was found
  • Leakage deduction is 0% with only the word 'quantified' as justification — no supporting calculation or narrative is provided
  • No verified ERR figure exists to validate the 17,496 tCO₂e claimed over the crediting period
  • CORSIA eligibility and CCP status are both unstated, leaving double-claiming risk unassessed
