BT2 Windfarm

Audit Analysis

The BT2 Windfarm is a Gold Standard wind energy project in Vietnam that displaces grid electricity, with additionality confirmed by the VVB via an investment test and a jurisdictional baseline. However, five material findings (methodology version errors, meter calibration discrepancies, and an emission factor mismatch) along with five required corrective actions and five cross-document contradictions significantly undermine confidence in the data quality. The project delivered approximately 91% of its pro-rata expected emissions reductions for the elapsed monitoring period, which is reasonable but the documentation gaps and low extraction confidence limit overall assurance.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠Five material findings in the verification report, including a methodology version mismatch (20.0 vs 21), a meter calibration serial number discrepancy, and a combined margin emission factor value in the MR table that did not align with the PDD
• ⚠Five cross-document contradictions spanning FPIC status, additionality test type, baseline method, leakage treatment, and ERR figures, indicating inconsistent project documentation
• ⚠Low extraction confidence across the document set, meaning at least one key document was poorly readable and data may be incomplete
• ⚠Buffer pool percentage not stated in any available document, leaving permanence risk unquantified
