Analysis

The Buccleuch Estates Whitehope project is a UK Woodland Carbon Code carbon-removal project with a VVB-confirmed additionality assessment and no material findings, but it suffers from a project-specific baseline, a weakly justified 0% leakage deduction, and a complete absence of monitoring or verification data. The registry status of 'Not Delivered' means no credits have been issued, limiting real-world over-crediting risk, yet the contradictions in claimed ERR figures and the low extraction confidence undermine confidence in the underlying data.
