Audit Analysis

A grid-connected wind power project in India with a sound avoidance-based design and VVB-confirmed additionality, but undermined by five corrective action requests, a grid emission factor frozen at 2012 values, and several missing operational documents (PPA, O&M agreements, grievance records). The project over-delivered relative to its pro-rata expectation in the 2024 monitoring period, and no reversal events were reported, but the documentation gaps and data inconsistencies lower confidence in the overall record.

Red Flags

  • Five Corrective Action Requests issued by the VVB, including missing PPA, O&M agreements, commissioning certificates, and grievance records
  • Grid emission factor of 0.95827 tCO2/MWh is from 2012 and has not been updated despite the project operating since 2017
  • Monitoring report contains internal inconsistencies in SDG benefit values, methodology version references, and missing meter calibration details
  • CORSIA eligibility and CCP status are not stated in any available document
