Beijing Haidian Beibu Gas-fired Cogeneration Project

Audit Analysis

A CDM gas-fired cogeneration project with VVB-confirmed additionality and a quantified (zero) leakage deduction, but hampered by a project-specific baseline, eight material findings on parameter accuracy and PDD completeness, and several key monitoring parameters (grid emission factor, usage monitoring method) not stated in the available record. The ERR figures in the PDD and validation report are consistent on a pro-rata basis, but the overall documentation quality and baseline robustness limit confidence.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠Eight material findings in the validation report, including unclear baseline parameters (EFBL, ηBL,EG, FFus,coal,default, EFCO2,gas,y) and a discrepancy between the expected commercial operation date and the crediting period start date
• ⚠Grid emission factor not stated in any available document despite the project displacing grid electricity as its baseline
• ⚠Usage monitoring method and end-use tracking not described in the extracted record, limiting verifiability of actual energy savings
• ⚠Baseline is project-specific with no reassessment date recorded, and the grid EF year is not specified
