Analysis

The Gomes de Mattos ceramic fuel-switching project has a confirmed additionality assessment and a long operational history under VCS, but is undermined by extensive material findings (no environmental management system, no emission monitoring, manual kiln operation), a 98% over-estimation of reductions in one monitoring period, and a leakage analysis that the VVB found non-compliant with the methodology. The project delivered roughly 68% of its pro-rata ex-ante expectation for the elapsed monitoring period, indicating conservative actual performance but also raising questions about the robustness of the original baseline.

Eligibility & market

What can you claim with this credit?

Four checks buyers ask about, from the registry and the Integrity Council (ICVCM).

  • Airlines (CORSIA)

    No CORSIA label on the registry

    Not usable for airlines' CORSIA obligations.

    Source: registry label

  • Integrity label (ICVCM CCP)

    Methodology not approved by ICVCMAMS-I.E

    The Integrity Council assessed this methodology as not meeting the Core Carbon Principles.

    Source: ICVCM assessment

  • Removal or reduction

    Emission reduction or avoidance

    Prevents or reduces emissions — fits contribution claims, not SBTi neutralisation.

    Source: project sector

  • Paris Agreement (Article 6)

    No Article 6 authorization

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