Audit Analysis
A 6 MW onshore wind project in Maharashtra with a VVB-confirmed investment additionality test and a jurisdictional baseline, but the verification record is marred by a significant discrepancy in verified emission reductions (69,543 tCO₂ in the VVB report vs. 47,316 tCO₂ in the later monitoring report) and seven corrective actions flagging incomplete meter data and missing monthly records. The project type carries low inherent reversal and leakage risk, yet the data-quality issues and the absence of an ex-ante lifetime estimate prevent a confident over- or under-crediting assessment.
Red Flags
- Verified ER of 69,543 tCO₂ in the VVB verification report (2022-03-28) conflicts with 47,316 tCO₂ in the later monitoring report (2022-04-28) — a ~47 % gap that undermines confidence in the final credit quantity.
- Seven corrective actions in the verification report cite incomplete ER sheets, missing monthly data, unconfirmed meter continuity, and incorrect crediting-period end dates, indicating the underlying monitoring data was not fully reliable at the time of verification.
- No ex-ante lifetime emission-reduction estimate was found in the extracted record, making a pro-rata over-/under-crediting check impossible.
