Audit Analysis
The Bundled Estelar CDM hydro project in Brazil has a solid additionality assessment (combined test, VVB-verified by Bureau Veritas) and a jurisdictional baseline using a 2007 grid emission factor of 0.1842 tCO2/MWh. However, significant data gaps — no verified ERR figures, no monitoring period, low extraction confidence, and a contradiction in the leakage justification between the validation report and an appendix — limit confidence in the project's overall quality and transparency.
Red Flags
- Contradiction in leakage treatment: the validation report (2010) states leakage was 'deemed negligible' while an appendix describes it as 'quantified' — the basis for the 0% deduction is unclear
- No verified ERR figures or monitoring period found in the extracted record, making it impossible to confirm the claimed 69,939 tCO2e
- Low extraction confidence across the document set, indicating at least one key document was poorly readable
- One evidence document is classified as 'unknown' type, reducing traceability
