Analysis

The Forestal Apepu project is a VCS eucalyptus plantation in Paraguay with VVB-confirmed additionality and a 17% buffer pool, but it is undermined by a weak 0% leakage deduction (contradicted by the PDD's 'quantified' treatment), a project-specific baseline with no stated reassessment date, a reported drought-related reversal of 26 ha, and an extensive list of material findings and corrective actions that reveal significant calculation and reporting inconsistencies across documents. The project delivered roughly 74% of its pro-rata ex-ante expectation for the first monitoring period, indicating moderate under-delivery.

    No CORSIA label on the registry

    Not usable for airlines' CORSIA obligations.

    Source: registry label

  • Integrity label (ICVCM CCP)

    No ICVCM information

    No CCP label and no ICVCM decision found for this project's methodology.

  • Removal or reduction

    Carbon removal

    Takes CO₂ out of the atmosphere — the only type that can neutralise residual emissions in an SBTi net-zero claim.

    Source: methodology

  • Paris Agreement (Article 6)

    No Article 6 authorization

    No corresponding adjustment: the host country can also count this reduction towards its own target.
