Audit Analysis
The Cabo Negro Wind Farm Phase 1 is a CDM-registered wind project in Chile with confirmed additionality via a combined test verified by TÜV NORD CERT. However, the validation report identified five material findings including calculation errors and a crediting-period inconsistency, and no corrective actions are recorded. The absence of any monitoring-period data and a project-specific (rather than grid-average) baseline limit confidence in the claimed 104,360 tCO₂e lifetime reduction.
Red Flags
- Five material findings in the validation report include an incorrect calculation of average fuel savings per MWh and an inconsistency in crediting-period duration (7 vs 10 years), yet no corrective actions are recorded in the extracted record
- No monitoring-period data or verified ERR is available in the extracted documents, making it impossible to confirm actual delivery against the 104,360 tCO₂e lifetime claim
- Baseline is project-specific rather than a jurisdictional grid-average, which is less conservative for a wind project displacing grid electricity
