Analysis

This Brazilian ceramics fuel-switching project (VCS-143) has VVB-confirmed additionality but is undermined by seven corrective actions (including a double-counting finding), a 95-fold discrepancy in the fuel net replacement benefit value across verification reports, a 0% leakage deduction with an internally inconsistent justification, and the absence of any buffer pool. The project's data reliability is significantly compromised by multiple cross-document contradictions, and the self-reported monitoring approach limits independent verification of emissions reductions.

Eligibility & market

What can you claim with this credit?

Four checks buyers ask about, from the registry and the Integrity Council (ICVCM).

  • Airlines (CORSIA)

    No CORSIA label on the registry

    Not usable for airlines' CORSIA obligations.

    Source: registry label

  • Integrity label (ICVCM CCP)

    Methodology not approved by ICVCMAMS-I.E

    The Integrity Council assessed this methodology as not meeting the Core Carbon Principles.

    Source: ICVCM assessment

  • Removal or reduction

    Emission reduction or avoidance

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

    Source: project sector

  • Paris Agreement (Article 6)

    No Article 6 authorization

    No corresponding adjustment: the host country can also count this reduction towards its own target.

    Source: registry label

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.
