Audit Analysis
A 49.5 MW onshore wind project in China validated under CDM methodology ACM0002 with a VVB-confirmed combined additionality test and a jurisdictional baseline. The project is an avoidance-type wind installation with inherently low reversal risk and a reasonable negligible-leakage claim, but the available record contains only validation-stage documents with no monitoring or verification data, and a significant seven-fold discrepancy in the claimed emission reduction figure between the PDD and the validation report.
Red Flags
- The PDD (April 2012) reports a total ERR of 589,799 tCO₂e while the validation report (August 2012) reports 84,257 tCO₂e — a roughly 7× discrepancy that, if the PDD figure were used for credit issuance, would represent severe over-crediting.
- No monitoring reports, verification reports, or verified ERR figures are present in the extracted record, making it impossible to confirm actual delivery against the claimed baseline.
- No FPIC, grievance mechanism, or detailed safeguards documentation was found in the available documents, despite safeguards being flagged as mentioned.
