Grid Connected Wind Power Project by M/s. Venkatrama Poultries Limited

Audit Analysis

A grid-connected wind power project in India validated under CDM AMS-I.D with a confirmed investment additionality test and a jurisdictional grid-emission-factor baseline. The project type carries inherently low permanence and leakage risk, but the available record is limited to a single validation report with nine material findings, no verification or monitoring data, and a ten-fold discrepancy in the claimed emission reduction between the PDD and the validation report.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠Ten-fold discrepancy in total emission reductions: the PDD (June 2011) states 73,670 tCO₂ while the validation report (July 2011) states 7,367 tCO₂ — a factor-of-10 error that undermines confidence in the credit quantity
• ⚠Nine material findings (five CAR, four CL) in the validation report, including an opaque investment analysis, incomplete monitoring plan, and missing stakeholder-consultation evidence, yet the corrective-actions list is empty
• ⚠No verification or monitoring reports found in the extracted record despite the crediting period (2011–2021) having elapsed, leaving actual performance unverified
• ⚠Low extraction confidence across the document set, meaning key data may be missing or misread
