Audit Analysis

A VCS-registered landfill gas utilization project in China with a VVB-confirmed combined additionality test and legally mandated gas capture, but hampered by a project-specific modeled baseline, a material finding on incomplete monitoring parameters, and contradictory leakage justifications across documents. The project delivered roughly 65% of its pro-rata ex-ante expectation for the elapsed monitoring period, and several key transparency fields (CORSIA, CCP, FNRB method) remain unstated.

Red Flags

  • Material finding (CAR 01): monitoring parameters were incomplete relative to the methodology, requiring a PDD update
  • Leakage justification is contradictory: the verification report states 'quantified' while the monitoring report states 'deemed negligible', both supporting a 0% deduction
  • Baseline is project-specific and modeled, with no reassessment date recorded in the extracted documents
  • CORSIA eligibility and CCP status are not stated in any available document, leaving dual-channel risk unassessed
