Audit Analysis
A 2007 CDM project bundling 100 small biomass gasifier plants in Bihar with a combined additionality test confirmed by DNV, but the available record is limited to a single validation report with no monitoring data, no verified emissions reductions, and several key sustainability parameters (feedstock, FNRB, buffer pool) unaddressed. The project is structurally sound on additionality but suffers from significant evidence gaps that prevent a confident assessment of actual delivery.
Red Flags
- No monitoring reports or verified emissions reduction figures found in the available record — the 431,960 tCO2e claimed figure cannot be independently corroborated
- Feedstock sustainability and carbon content testing are not stated in any available document, a material gap for a biomass energy project
- Only a 2007 validation report is available; no subsequent monitoring, verification, or baseline reassessment documents were found
- Leakage deduction of 0% is justified only as 'deemed negligible' without a quantified analysis in the extracted record
