Audit Analysis
A CDM wind farm project in China with solid additionality (combined test confirmed by TÜV Rheinland, IRR below benchmark) and a standard jurisdictional grid-emission-factor baseline. The project delivered substantially more credits than the pro-rata expectation for the monitoring period, suggesting a conservative baseline, but an internal contradiction in the claimed ERR figures within the same monitoring report raises a data-reliability question. No permanence or leakage concerns apply to this avoidance-type wind project.
Red Flags
- The monitoring report (2015) contains two different 'claimed' ERR values (172,236 and 35,889) for the same project, creating ambiguity about the correct ex-ante expectation for the monitoring period.
- CORSIA eligibility and CCP status are not stated in any available document, leaving dual-channel risk unassessed.
- The grid emission factor of 1.1438 tCO₂/MWh is anchored to 2008 data; no evidence of periodic grid-EF updates was found in the extracted record.
