Chongqing Siyanping 49.3MW Wind Power Project

Audit Analysis

A 49.3 MW onshore wind project in Chongqing, China, validated under CDM methodology ACM0002 v19.0 with a jurisdictional grid-emission-factor baseline. The project is low-risk in design (wind displacing grid electricity, negligible leakage, no reversal risk), but the extracted record lacks explicit confirmation of the additionality test, a monitoring report, and several MRV parameters, limiting confidence in the full verification chain.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠Additionality test type and VVB confirmation are not stated in the extracted record, leaving the additionality assessment unverified from available documents
• ⚠No monitoring report is present in the evidence set; the only verification document is the 2019 validation report, so post-validation performance is unconfirmed
• ⚠The PDD (486,710 tCO₂e) and validation report (69,530 tCO₂e) report different ERR figures; although the ratio (~7×) is consistent with a 7-year crediting period, the discrepancy was not explicitly reconciled in the documents
