Analysis

Buried Treasure (Mexico) collects and destroys landfill gas at a landfill in Mexico, beyond what Mexican regulation requires (the collected landfill gas is used for electricity generation using a destruction device considered as “rich burn” internal combustion engine. The project also operates a landfill gas flaring device, which operates once per month as a system “purging” process) under CAR Mexico Landfill Project Reporting Protocol Version 2.0; registry status Registered (CAR), 433,103 credits issued (vintages 2021–2025). The documents name SCS Global Services as validation / verification body. A verification report is in the record; no monitoring report is among the documents read.
