Audit Analysis
Ekovilla 3 Ylistaro is a Finnish alternative-materials (biomass) project verified by DNV with no material findings, a 10% buffer pool, and a 50-year permanence claim. However, the extracted record lacks critical integrity details—additionality test type, baseline method, and leakage treatment are all absent—creating meaningful evidence gaps. A contradiction between two verification reports (1.112 vs 19,833.92 tCO2) raises data-reliability questions that temper confidence in the claimed figures.
Red Flags
- Contradiction between two verification reports: one (2021-05-12) reports 1.112 tCO2 while the other (2022-05-24) reports 19,833.92 tCO2 for both claimed and verified ERR—a factor-of-~17,800 discrepancy that is unexplained in the extracted record
- Additionality test type, baseline method, and leakage treatment are all absent from the extracted record despite being core integrity requirements for an alternative-materials project
- Claimed and verified ERR figures are identical (19,833.92), which may indicate the VVB confirmed project-calculated values rather than independently re-deriving them
