Grid Connected Wind Electricity Generation Project in Karnataka

Audit Analysis

A CDM wind project in Karnataka with a solid investment-test additionality assessment verified by RINA and a jurisdictional grid-emission-factor baseline. However, the available record is heavily skewed toward the validation stage: no verified emission reductions, no monitoring period data, and a ten-fold discrepancy between the lifetime ERR in the validation report and a figure in an appendix. Low extraction confidence and the absence of any verification or monitoring reports limit confidence in the project's ongoing performance.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠ERR contradiction: the validation report (Jan 2011) states 63,680 tCO₂e lifetime, while an appendix lists 6,367.75 tCO₂e — a 10× gap that is most likely an annual-vs-lifetime mix-up but is not explicitly reconciled in the record
• ⚠No verified emission reductions or monitoring-period data found in any of the seven extracted documents
• ⚠Minimum extraction confidence rated 'low', indicating at least one key document was poorly readable
• ⚠No buffer pool percentage stated, and no reversal-event history available
