Audit Analysis

A legacy CDM waste-heat-recovery project (2008–2018) with a VVB-confirmed combined additionality test and no outstanding corrective actions, but significant gaps in permanence safeguards (no buffer pool), a project-specific baseline with no reassessment record, and a 0% leakage deduction justified only as 'deemed negligible.' The verified emissions reductions for the five-year monitoring period actually exceeded the pro-rata expectation from the PDD, which is a positive signal, but the absence of FNRB, usage-rate data, and CORSIA/CCP status limits confidence in the claim.

Red Flags

  • Leakage deduction of 0% is justified solely as 'deemed negligible' with no quantified analysis in the extracted record
  • FNRB value, usage monitoring method, and both assumed and verified usage rates are absent from all available documents
  • Monitoring report is dated January 2024 but covers a monitoring period that ended in February 2013 — an 11-year verification lag raises questions about data currency and MRV timeliness
