Gansu Yumen Sanshilijingzi North No.2 48 MW Wind Power Project

Audit Analysis

A 48 MW CDM wind project in Gansu, China, with a VVB-confirmed combined additionality test and jurisdictional grid baseline, but the validation report recorded 13 material findings covering incorrect plant load factors, flawed IRR calculations, and missing grid emission factor parameters. No monitoring reports or verified emission reduction figures are available in the extracted record, so actual performance against the 655,977 tCO₂e lifetime claim cannot be assessed. The project is an avoidance type with no inherent reversal risk, and the 0% leakage deduction is reasonable for grid-connected wind.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠Thirteen material findings in the validation report, including incorrect Plant Load Factor for the first two years and a depreciation error affecting the IRR calculation, raise concerns about the accuracy of the ex-ante ERR estimate
• ⚠No monitoring reports or verified emission reduction figures are available in the extracted record, making it impossible to confirm whether the project delivered its claimed reductions
• ⚠Missing parameters for the grid emission factor ex-ante determination (Finding B4) undermine confidence in the 0.89635 kgCO₂/kWh baseline value used
• ⚠CORSIA eligibility and CCP status are not stated in any available document, leaving dual-channel risk unassessed
