CEKEREK BIOGAS POWER PLANT

Audit Analysis

The Cekerrek Biogas Power Plant is a VCS-registered biogas energy project in Turkey using the well-established AMS-III.D methodology, with VVB-confirmed additionality via a barrier test and no reversal risk inherent to the energy sector. However, the project relies on a project-specific baseline, lacks a monitoring report in the available record, and the low extraction confidence across ten documents limits assurance on data completeness. Three contradictions between the PDD and validation report were identified and resolved in favour of the more recent VVB assessment.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠Low extraction confidence across the document set means at least one key document was poorly readable, reducing assurance on the accuracy of extracted figures.
• ⚠No monitoring report or monitoring period was found in the available record; the only ERR figures (167,363 tCO₂e claimed and verified) appear to be the lifetime ex-ante estimate, so actual delivery performance cannot be assessed.
• ⚠17 Corrective Action Requests were raised during validation (all closed), indicating a non-trivial number of issues the VVB needed to resolve before sign-off.
• ⚠A Forward Action Request regarding future changes in the manure supplier farm list remains open, introducing a minor forward-looking risk to feedstock continuity.
