Analysis

A CDM biogas methane-avoidance project in Nepal with a standard investment-test additionality assessment and a 5% quantified leakage deduction. The project shows reasonable conservatism in using a verified usage rate (85.79%) well below the assumed 100%, but documentation gaps around permanence, FPIC, and verified ERR figures limit confidence. Several procedural material findings were identified and corrected, indicating initial documentation weaknesses that were subsequently addressed.
