Analysis

The Basak Hydropower Plant is a straightforward renewable-energy avoidance project with VVB-confirmed additionality and inherently low permanence and leakage risk. However, a significant discrepancy between two verified ERR figures (21,164 vs 38,021 tCO₂), ten cross-document contradictions, four material findings, and low extraction confidence materially undermine confidence in the credit quantity and data reliability.

    This registry publishes CORSIA labels, but CarbonMeld has not read this project's credit records yet: we cannot say whether its credits carry one. Check on the registry.

  • Integrity label (ICVCM CCP)

    Methodology not approved by ICVCMAMS-I.D

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

  • Removal or reduction

    Emission reduction or avoidance

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

    Source: project sector

  • Paris Agreement (Article 6)

    Not checked yet

    This registry publishes Article 6 authorizations, but CarbonMeld has not read this project's credit records yet: we cannot say whether any credits are authorized. Check 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.
