Audit Analysis

A CDM energy-efficiency project (blast furnace gas combined cycle power plant) with VVB-confirmed additionality and a jurisdictional baseline, but hampered by an outdated 2006 grid emission factor, unresolved contradictions in baseline classification and crediting period dates, and several key MRV parameters (FNRB, usage monitoring method) not stated in the extracted record. The project delivered 95.6% of its claimed reductions for the monitored period, indicating reasonable claim accuracy.

Red Flags

  • Grid emission factor sourced from 2006 data, flagged in the verification report as outdated; no updated factor documented
  • Baseline method contradicts between the 2010 monitoring report (project-specific) and the 2012 monitoring report (jurisdictional), creating uncertainty about the actual baseline basis
  • Crediting period start date differs by over two months between the PDD (2008-01-15) and the 2012 monitoring report (2008-03-17)
  • FNRB method and value, usage monitoring method, and usage rate are all absent from the extracted record, limiting independent verification of the reduction calculation
