Audit Analysis

A 49.5 MW CDM wind project in China with a solid combined additionality test confirmed by Bureau Veritas and a jurisdictional grid-emission-factor baseline. However, a seven-fold discrepancy in claimed emissions reductions between the PDD and the validation report, combined with the absence of any monitoring or verification data and low extraction confidence, significantly limits confidence in the project's actual performance and data reliability.

Red Flags

  • Seven-fold discrepancy in total claimed emissions reductions: the PDD (2011-12-04) states 637,427 tCO₂e while the validation report (2011-12-07) states 91,061 tCO₂e — a factor-of-7 gap that undermines data reliability
  • No monitoring reports, verification reports, or verified ERR figures are present in the extracted record, making it impossible to assess actual delivery against the pro-rata expectation
  • Low extraction confidence across the document set, indicating at least one key document was poorly readable or incomplete
