Worked comparison example (English)

CarbonMeld's document-based rating gives Akocak Hydroelectric Power Plant (VCS-535) no number (No public grade applies yet): CarbonMeld read its documents, but its type of project does not yet have a public grade that applies to it on both additionality and quantification. The absence of a number says nothing about the project's quality.

Assessment

Document-based rating

No public grade applies yet

No public source has yet given this type of project grades on both additionality and quantification that apply here. CarbonMeld read this project's documents. The analysis is below. The page can receive a number once a public grade of its type of project applies on both additionality and quantification. The absence of a number says nothing about the project's quality.

Evidence coverage: medium

Methodology v3 · documents read on 16 Oct 2026

Starting point

  • Additionality: CCQI's score for this type of project (CCQI does not list this methodology under this programme: the grade CCQI gives this type of project under the programme)
  • Quantification: no public grade of this type of project applies
  • Claim safety: no public grade of this type of project applies

Rules that lower a dimension or the rating as a whole: 1

Each rule, with the fact and the source it rests on, is in the Premium analysis.

Not counted by the method

  • Quantification: no public grade of this type of project applies
  • Quantification: CCQI grades version 21 of this methodology, and an ICVCM decision's version range separates this project's version from it
  • The oldest vintage still on sale, the content of the safeguards and the verifier's quality: not among the facts read

  • Removal or reduction

    Emission reduction or avoidance

    Prevents or reduces emissions — fits contribution claims, not SBTi neutralisation.

    Source: project sector

    Covers: the project type, not a label on individual credits

  • Paris Agreement (Article 6)

    Covers: this project's credit records as read on the registry

Information only, from public sources. Claim rules (CORSIA, SBTi, EU rules on green claims) change: check them before making a public claim. Since 27 September 2026, EU consumer rules do not allow “climate neutral” product claims based on offsets.
