Audit Analysis

A 5 MW solar PV project in Tamil Nadu validated under CDM with a combined additionality test confirmed by TÜV Rheinland Japan and a jurisdictional grid-emission-factor baseline. The methodology (AMS-I.D. v16) is well-established and the validation process was thorough (28 CARs and 17 CLs raised and closed, no FARs), but the extracted record contains no monitoring or verification reports, no verified emissions-reduction figures, and low extraction confidence, leaving delivery unconfirmed. The project's crediting period ended in 2018, and no permanence mechanism beyond the crediting period is documented.

Red Flags

  • No monitoring reports or verification reports were found in the extracted record; total verified ERR is not stated, so actual delivery cannot be confirmed
  • Low extraction confidence across the document set, meaning key figures may be incomplete or misread
  • The PDD reports a total ERR of 55,034 tCO₂ while the validation report states 7,862 tCO₂ — likely an annual-versus-total-period discrepancy (7,862 × 7 = 55,034), but the inconsistency is not explicitly reconciled in the documents
  • No buffer pool, permanence mechanism, or reversal-risk assessment is documented for this avoidance-type project
  • CORSIA eligibility and CCP status are not stated in any available document
