Audit Analysis
A CDM rice-husk cogeneration project with VVB-confirmed additionality and a reasonable leakage justification, but weakened by a project-specific baseline, the omission of two diesel generator sets from the registered project boundary, and several key MRV parameters (FNRB, usage rate, buffer pool) that are not stated in the available documents. The verified emissions reductions for the ~23-month monitoring period are broadly consistent with the PDD's ex-ante estimate on a pro-rata basis, suggesting no material over-crediting.
Red Flags
- Two diesel generator sets (500 kVA and 625 kVA) were omitted from the registered PDD project boundary, requiring corrective action to update the PDD and add diesel consumption monitoring
- Baseline is project-specific rather than jurisdictional, and no baseline reassessment date is recorded in the available documents
- Buffer pool percentage and reversal risk treatment are not stated in any available document, leaving permanence risk unquantified
- FNRB value, usage monitoring method, and usage rate (assumed and verified) are all absent from the extracted record
Credit Vintages
No issuances recorded on the registry.
