Audit Analysis

A-Gas Americas 2018-1 is an ozone-depleting substance destruction project under the CAR registry, verified by SES, Inc. The project's inherent permanence (irreversible ODS destruction) and exact match between claimed and verified ERR figures are positive, but significant documentation gaps in additionality testing, baseline methodology, and leakage treatment limit confidence in the credit's robustness.

Red Flags

  • Additionality test type and VVB confirmation are not stated in any available document, leaving the additionality claim unverified
  • Baseline methodology and last reassessment date are absent from the extracted record, making it impossible to assess baseline validity
  • Leakage deduction and justification are not stated, despite the project type where some leakage pathway should be addressed
  • Monitoring period (approximately 2.5 months) is very short relative to the 10-year crediting period, raising questions about representativeness
