Audit Analysis

A-Gas South Korea 5 is an ODS destruction project under ACR with VVB-confirmed additionality and inherent permanence (destroyed ODS cannot re-enter the atmosphere). The monitoring report (September 2025) shows claimed and verified ERR figures matching at 38,309 tonnes CO₂e, with no material findings, but four corrective actions related to regulatory and transport documentation remain open. Overall a credible project with moderate documentation gaps.

Red Flags

  • Four corrective actions remain open in the monitoring report, including a missing 2024 regulatory audit for the South Korea facility, a hazmat transport certification gap, a missing ODS receiving report, and missing start tickets for Plas1280
  • CCP and CORSIA eligibility status are not stated in any available document, leaving dual-channel risk unassessed
