Biomass based Cogeneration Project at Kashipur, Uttarakhand

Audit Analysis

This biomass cogeneration project under the UCR registry has a plausible structure (AMS-I.C methodology, 10-year crediting period, ~6,926 tCO₂e/yr) but the available record consists of a single PDD with no verification report, no monitoring report, and no identified VVB. Additionality is neither documented nor independently verified, no permanence mechanism is described, and key MRV parameters (FNRB, usage rates, grid emission factor) are absent from the extracted data.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠No additionality test type or VVB verification is documented in the available record; the PDD does not specify which test was applied or who confirmed it
• ⚠No buffer pool, permanence mechanism, or reversal-risk mitigation is described for a 10-year crediting period
• ⚠No verification report or monitoring report is present in the record; the verified ERR figure is not available
• ⚠FNRB method and value, usage monitoring method, and grid emission factor are all absent from the extracted data
• ⚠Only a single document (PDD dated 2023-01-07) is available, providing no independent verification of claimed emissions reductions
