Advanced Refrigeration - ARS2023001

Audit Analysis
A US-based advanced refrigeration project under ACR with VVB-confirmed additionality (combined test) and a 10-year crediting period. The verified ERR of 20,124 tCO₂e matches the ex-ante lifetime estimate exactly, which is consistent with a one-time refrigerant-charge calculation at installation. However, the project carries three material documentation findings requiring corrective action, a project-specific baseline with no stated reassessment date, a 0% leakage deduction justified only as 'deemed negligible,' and no stated usage-monitoring method or FNRB value.
Red Flags
- Three material findings in the verification report (incomplete SDG Contribution Report, errors in the Project Plan start date/address/retrofit references, and placeholder text in the Monitoring Report) with corrective actions still required
- Leakage deduction of 0% justified only as 'deemed negligible' with no quantitative analysis, while the validation report does not address leakage at all
- Usage monitoring method and FNRB value are not stated in any available document, leaving the operational continuity of the refrigerant system unverified
