Audit Analysis
A-Gas South Korea 2 is an ozone-depleting-substance destruction project under ACR with VVB-confirmed additionality and inherently permanent credits (ODS is destroyed irreversibly). The main concerns are a project-specific baseline with no documented reassessment, five material findings requiring corrective action, and low extraction confidence across the document set. The claimed and verified emission reduction figures match exactly at 74,831 tonnes, and the short monitoring window is consistent with a one-time destruction event.
Red Flags
- Five material findings (CARs, ADRs, CR) were raised in the verification, including an incomplete Environmental and Social Impact Assessment and missing South Korea export documentation, with two corrective actions still required.
- Minimum extraction confidence across the 11 source documents is rated low, meaning key data points may have been missed or misread during extraction.
- The registry field in the extracted record reads 'CDM' while the standard and registry code (ACR-882) clearly indicate ACR, suggesting a data-entry or extraction error that undermines record reliability.
