Analysis

SHP Santa Carolina is a small-scale hydro project in Brazil with a VVB-confirmed investment additionality test and a jurisdictional baseline reassessed in 2020, but the available record is severely limited: no monitoring reports, no verified emissions reductions, and a seven-fold discrepancy in the claimed ERR between the PDD and the validation report. Five material findings and corrective actions in the validation report raise concerns about the robustness of the PDD, and the low extraction confidence on key documents further undermines confidence in the data.
