Bulam 7MW HEPP
Score Breakdown
Integrity
verified The project uses a project baseline and the additionality test type is stated as an investment test in the verification record.
missing Leakage is inconsistent across documents, and the verification report records multiple corrective findings.
Transparency
verified The project has a named VVB, a defined monitoring period, and four evidence documents were used.
missing Verified and claimed emission reduction totals are not stated in the extracted record, limiting public MRV clarity.
Claim Safety
verified The project is a small hydro activity with FPIC and grievance mechanisms documented, which helps reduce some safeguard-related risk.
missing The baseline is project-specific rather than a more conservative standardized or jurisdictional baseline, and leakage treatment is disputed.
Documentation
verified The record includes a verification report, monitoring report, PDD, and another document, with medium extraction confidence.
missing One key document was not clearly identified and the verification report is dated 2016, while the crediting period extends beyond that point.
Detailed Analysis
Integrity
The project has some support for additionality because the verification record identifies an investment test, and the baseline method is project-based. On the downside, the verification report records 09 CARs, 03 CLs, and 01 FAR, which suggests material implementation or documentation issues. Leakage is not robustly handled: the monitoring report says it was deemed negligible, but the verification report says it was not addressed, so confidence in the integrity of the accounting is reduced.
Transparency
Transparency is moderate because the project has a named VVB, a stated monitoring period, and multiple source documents were used. However, the extracted record does not provide verified or claimed emission reduction totals, and several operational details such as usage monitoring and grid factor inputs are not found in the available documents. The medium extraction confidence also suggests the record is incomplete or partially difficult to read.
Claim Safety
Claim safety is weakened by the project-specific baseline and the unresolved leakage treatment, both of which increase over-crediting risk. The project does have some safeguard documentation, including FPIC and a grievance mechanism, which helps, but that does not offset the accounting uncertainty. No CORSIA or CCP status is stated, so channel-specific claim risk cannot be ruled out from the extracted record.
Documentation
The documentation set is reasonably broad, with a verification report, monitoring report, PDD, and another document listed, and the extraction confidence is medium rather than low. Still, important fields are missing, including verified emission totals, buffer pool information, and several methodological details. The verification report is also older than the end of the crediting period, so recency is only partial.
Overall
Overall, this project sits in the middle of the pack: it has some positive evidence for additionality and safeguards, but the accounting record is not clean enough for a high-confidence score. I privileged the verification report over the monitoring report on the leakage contradiction because it is the higher-assurance document, but the inconsistency itself still lowers reliability. The score is also pulled down by the multiple corrective findings and by missing key quantitative fields that would normally support stronger transparency and claim safety.
Audit Analysis
This is a small hydro project with some positive signs, including an investment-test additionality claim, FPIC, and a grievance mechanism. However, the record has meaningful gaps and one direct contradiction on leakage treatment, and the verification report also records multiple corrective findings, which weakens confidence in the crediting claims.
Project Description
Developer: Deactivated Projects Type: Small, Low - Impact Hydro Size: Small Scale Methodology: ACM0002 Grid-connected electricity generation from renewable sources Crediting period: 2010-08-01 → 2015-07-31 Estimated annual credits: 21157 tCO2e SDGs: Goal 9: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure, Goal 7: Affordable and Clean Energy, Goal 13: Climate Action
Red Flags
- The verification report recorded 09 CARs, 03 CLs, and 01 FAR, indicating substantial issues during verification.
- Leakage treatment is inconsistent across documents: the monitoring report says leakage was deemed negligible, while the verification report says it was not addressed.

Cosa migliorerebbe questo punteggio
- Provide a complete, reconciled leakage assessment and explain why the monitoring report and verification report differ.
- Publish the verified emission reduction totals, baseline recalculation details, and any VVB corrective action closure evidence.
Questi suggerimenti indicano quali prove pubbliche aggiuntive potrebbero migliorare il livello di confidenza di questa valutazione. Non garantiscono un punteggio futuro più alto.
