Analysis

A CDM biogas project in Nepal using the AMS.I.E. methodology with a project-specific baseline and quantified 5% leakage deduction. The project shows a significant gap between assumed (100%) and verified (79.47%) usage rates, and the verified emissions reductions (247,499 tCO2e) vastly exceed the claimed figure (28,410 tCO2e), raising serious over-crediting concerns. Multiple contradictions across monitoring reports and unresolved material findings further weaken confidence in the data.
