Audit Analysis
A 7 MW small hydro project in Kerala, India, using the well-established AMS-I.D methodology with a jurisdictional baseline and a reasonable grid emission factor of 0.9 tCO2/MWh. The project's core design appears sound for a hydro displacement project, but the available documentation is limited to a single PDD with no verification reports, monitoring reports, or identified VVB, leaving additionality verification and actual performance unconfirmed.
Red Flags
- No verification body (VVB) is identified in the available records, and no verification or monitoring reports were found — the project's additionality and actual emissions reductions remain unverified in the extracted documentation
- Additionality test type and VVB confirmation are not stated in the PDD, leaving the core additionality claim unsupported by the available evidence
- Only one document (the PDD) is available; the absence of any monitoring or verification report for a project whose full 10-year crediting period (2013–2023) has elapsed is a significant transparency gap
