Analysis

A 6 MW biomass energy project under CDM (AMS-I.D) with a VVB-verified combined additionality test and a jurisdictional baseline, but with notable gaps in feedstock sustainability documentation, carbon content verification, and a thin leakage justification. The project delivered roughly 119% of its pro-rata ex-ante expectation for the monitored year, which is within a reasonable range, though the use of woody biomass (mango cuttings) raised renewability concerns flagged by the VVB.
