Audit Analysis

A grid-connected solar PV project in Gujarat with a solid additionality assessment (investment test, VVB-confirmed) and consistent ERR figures for the latest monitoring period. However, the project carries notable weaknesses: the non-permanence risk analysis is marked 'NA' with no buffer pool stated, the leakage justification is contradictory within the same verification report, and twelve corrective action requests were raised against the monitoring report, indicating meaningful gaps in MRV documentation quality.

Red Flags

  • Twelve corrective action requests were raised against the monitoring report, including missing transformer specifications, inconsistent geographic coordinates, non-functional reference links, and an opaque VER computation method for October 2013
  • The verification report contains an internal contradiction on the baseline method (described as both 'project' and 'jurisdictional' in the same document) and on the leakage justification (described as both 'not addressed' and 'deemed negligible')
  • The grid emission factor of 0.9487 tCO2/kWh is from 2010 and has not been updated despite the project operating through 2022
