Ckani Wind Farm Project

Audit Analysis

The Ckani Wind Farm is a CDM-registered wind energy project in Chile with a jurisdictional baseline and VVB-confirmed additionality, but the validation report reveals eight material findings including errors in emission factor calculations and financial analysis that were subsequently corrected. The absence of any monitoring-period data, combined with low extraction confidence across the document set, limits the ability to verify actual performance against the claimed 2.86 million tonnes of CO₂ avoided over the 2013–2019 crediting period.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠Eight material findings at validation included data-entry errors in the emission factor spreadsheet and calculation errors in the common practice analysis, raising over-crediting risk that was only resolved through corrective actions
• ⚠No monitoring-period data or verified ERR figures are available in the extracted record, making it impossible to confirm actual delivery against the 2,864,892 tCO₂ lifetime claim
• ⚠Low extraction confidence across the document set means at least one key document was poorly readable, reducing reliability of all extracted facts
• ⚠Contradiction between the PDD (leakage 'deemed negligible') and an unidentified source (leakage 'quantified') creates uncertainty about the true leakage treatment
