Audit Analysis
A 49.5 MW CDM wind project validated by Bureau Veritas with a combined additionality test and jurisdictional grid baseline, but the available record is limited to validation-stage documents with no monitoring reports, no verified emission reductions, and low extraction confidence. The apparent discrepancy in claimed ERR figures between the PDD and validation report is resolved as an annual-versus-lifetime reporting difference (97,708 tCO₂/yr × 7 yr = 683,956 tCO₂), not a true contradiction. Overall the project design is sound for a wind avoidance project, but the absence of post-validation data and the low documentation confidence limit confidence in the credit's integrity.
Red Flags
- No monitoring report or verified emission reductions found in the extracted record; the project's actual performance over its 2012–2019 crediting period is unconfirmed
- Low extraction confidence across the document set, meaning key figures may be incomplete or misread
- Nine material findings at validation (missing IRR tax basis, incomplete common-practice data, unspecified turbine manufacturer/lifetime, missing loan documentation) indicate the PDD had significant gaps that were only partially resolved
- No buffer pool or permanence mechanism documented, leaving no safety net against potential reversal
Credit Vintages
No issuances recorded on the registry.
