Energía Renovable Tacuarembó 10 MW Biomass Power Generation

Audit Analysis

A 10 MW biomass power generation project in Uruguay under CDM with a confirmed barrier-test additionality assessment by TÜV Rheinland and a jurisdictional grid-emission-factor baseline. The project over-delivered relative to its ex-ante estimate (verified ERR roughly 4× the validation-report figure), which is conservative for claim safety, but several operational monitoring parameters (leakage percentage, FNRB, usage monitoring method) are absent from the extracted record, limiting full verification of the MRV chain.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠Leakage is described as 'quantified' in the monitoring report but no specific deduction percentage is stated in any available document, leaving the magnitude of the leakage adjustment unverifiable.
• ⚠Baseline method is characterised as 'jurisdictional' in the 2022 monitoring report but as 'project' in the 2012 validation report; the discrepancy is not reconciled in the extracted record.
• ⚠Total verified ERR is not stated as a separate figure in the monitoring report; only the claimed ERR of 165,926 tCO₂e is available, preventing an independent cross-check of the verification calculation.
