Fuel efficiency improvement in glass melting

Audit Analysis
A CDM energy-efficiency project in Indian glass manufacturing with a VVB-confirmed barrier additionality test and a reputable verifier (DNV). The project-specific baseline and 0% leakage deduction are standard for this methodology but limit robustness, and two material findings (corrective actions) were raised and resolved during monitoring. Overall a moderately well-documented project with minor data gaps and one explainable inconsistency in reported emission figures.
Red Flags
- Leakage justification is inconsistent between the PDD (quantified) and the 2011 monitoring report (deemed negligible), creating ambiguity about whether leakage was actually calculated or simply assumed zero.
- Reported emission reduction figures differ substantially between the 2007 monitoring report (37,664 tCO2e) and the 2011 monitoring report (19,768 tCO2e); while likely attributable to the CAR that modified baseline calculations, the magnitude of the revision warrants scrutiny.
- Baseline is project-specific rather than jurisdictional, and no baseline reassessment date is recorded in the available documents.
