Cangxi Donghe Fengziyan Hydroelectric Power Station

Audit Analysis

A small hydro CDM project in China using a standardized methodology (AMS-I.D. v18) with a jurisdictional baseline and a named VVB, but the extracted record contains significant gaps: no additionality test type, no verified ERR, no monitoring report, and low extraction confidence. The project is structurally sound for a hydro avoidance credit, yet the absence of monitoring data and the contradiction on leakage treatment limit confidence in the claimed 156,387 tCO₂e.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠Additionality test type and VVB confirmation are not stated in any extracted document, leaving the core additionality claim unverified in the available record
• ⚠No monitoring report or verified ERR figure is present; the claimed 156,387 tCO₂e cannot be cross-checked against actual generation
• ⚠Contradiction between the PDD (leakage 'deemed negligible') and an unidentified document (leakage 'quantified') undermines confidence in the 0% leakage deduction
• ⚠Low extraction confidence across the document set and one evidence document identified only as 'unknown' reduce overall data reliability
