Audit Analysis

The Energo Trust wind project in Kazakhstan has a VVB-confirmed investment additionality test and a reasonable 0% leakage deduction for a renewable generation project, but is undermined by a project-specific baseline (contradicted by the monitoring report), six corrective action requests, no FPIC, and seven cross-document contradictions that erode confidence in the data. The verified ERR of 126,188 tCO₂e represents roughly 83% of the 151,994 tCO₂e claimed, a moderate shortfall that warrants scrutiny.

Red Flags

  • Six Corrective Action Requests (CARs) were raised during verification, with CAR#01 still open and an additional Clarification Request (CL#02) also open, indicating unresolved quality issues in the project documentation.
  • The baseline method is contradictory: the verification report (Oct 2024) states a project-specific baseline while the monitoring report (Oct 2024) references a jurisdictional baseline, creating uncertainty about which baseline underpins the credit claims.
  • The additionality test type is inconsistent: the PDD describes a combined (investment + barrier) test, while the verification report records only an investment test, raising questions about the robustness of the additionality assessment.
