Analysis

A 10-year VCS wind power project in Guangdong, China, with a well-established investment-test additionality confirmed by the VVB and a jurisdictional grid-emission-factor baseline. The project carries no meaningful reversal risk and shows no over-crediting (claimed equals verified ERR), but the 0% leakage deduction lacks an explicit justification and a grid-emission-factor error required correction during verification. Several contradictions between the 2010 validation and 2022 verification reports, along with a medium extraction confidence, temper the overall confidence in the documentation record.

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

    Source: project sector

  • Paris Agreement (Article 6)

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