Delhi Metro, India
#377of 433 in Universal Carbon Registry (UCR)#5of 5 in ACM0016
Audit Analysis
The Delhi Metro project (UCR-373) is a large-scale transit avoidance project with a claimed 11.75 MtCO2e over a 10-year crediting period, but the available record consists solely of a PDD with no verification reports, monitoring reports, or VVB assessment. Critical integrity elements — additionality testing, baseline reassessment, buffer pool, and verified emissions reductions — are entirely absent from the extracted data, making it impossible to confirm the robustness of the credit claims.
Red Flags
- No verification body (VVB) identified and no additionality test type or VVB confirmation found in any available document
- No verified emissions reduction figure exists; the 11.75 MtCO2e claim rests entirely on the PDD with no independent monitoring or verification data
- Leakage deduction is 0% with only a one-word justification ('quantified') — no supporting calculation or methodology is documented
- Only a single document (PDD, dated 2023-09-29) is available; no verification reports, monitoring reports, or registry records were found
