Alto Benedito Novo Small Hydroelectric Project

Audit Analysis

A small-scale hydroelectric CDM project (AMS-I.D) with a confirmed barrier-test additionality assessment and a jurisdictional baseline, but the available record is limited to a 2007 validation report with no monitoring or verification data. Three corrective action requests from the validator flag procedural documentation gaps, and the absence of any verified emissions figure means the 134,464 tCO₂e lifetime claim cannot be independently corroborated.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠Three Corrective Action Requests (CARs) in the validation report flag missing Annex I approval letter, a crediting-period start-date inconsistency, and missing PDD section A.4 content — procedural gaps that undermine confidence in the project's administrative completeness.
• ⚠No monitoring report or verified emissions figure is available in the extracted record, so the 134,464 tCO₂e lifetime claim rests solely on the ex-ante PDD estimate with no post-implementation verification.
• ⚠Low extraction confidence across the document set indicates at least one key source was poorly readable, reducing reliability of the structured data.
