A-Gas V7
#196of 345 in United States#90of 147 in American Carbon Registry (ACR)
Audit Analysis
A-Gas V7 is an HFC refrigerant reclamation project in Ohio with VVB-confirmed additionality and a valid methodology, but the verification report identified four material findings—including overstated or misassigned Certificate of Analysis volumes—that raise over-crediting concerns. The 0% leakage deduction lacks a clear justification in the validation report, and a crediting-period discrepancy between the validation report and the issuance record undermines data reliability.
Red Flags
- Verification report identifies that the volume of reclaimed refrigerant assigned to CofA #345276 is overstated or a second CofA is missing, and 5,900 lbs of HFC material was incorrectly assigned to CofA #369931—both raise over-crediting risk.
- Crediting period is stated as 2021-01-20 to 2031-01-19 in the validation report but 2020-07-01 to 2029-06-30 in the issuance record, a discrepancy that is not explained in any available document.
- Leakage deduction is 0% with the justification recorded as 'not addressed' in the validation report, despite the PDD stating it is 'deemed negligible'—the basis for this claim is not documented.
