CGN Jilin Daan 49.5MW Wind Power Project

Audit Analysis

A 49.5 MW onshore wind project in China validated under CDM with a jurisdictional baseline and a specific grid emission factor (0.9139, 2019). The project is low-risk in principle for a mature renewable-energy technology, but the extracted record lacks explicit additionality confirmation, any monitoring-period data, and CORSIA/CCP eligibility information, and the extraction confidence is flagged as low. Three minor corrective actions were identified during validation and subsequently resolved.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠Additionality test type and VVB confirmation are not stated in the extracted record; CDM validation requires this, but it cannot be verified from the available documents.
• ⚠No monitoring period or monitoring report is present in the evidence set, leaving the verified ERR figure (92,571 tCO₂e) without a traceable monitoring basis.
• ⚠The PDD reports a total ERR of 647,997 tCO₂e while the validation report states 92,571 tCO₂e; although the ~7× ratio is consistent with a 7-year crediting period (annual vs. lifetime), the discrepancy is not explicitly reconciled in the documents.
• ⚠Minimum extraction confidence is rated low, and one of the four source documents is listed as 'unknown', reducing reliability of the extracted data.
