Guohua Zhucheng Wind Power Project Phase III

Audit Analysis

A standard CDM wind project in China with a jurisdictional grid baseline and VVB-confirmed additionality, but the available record is limited to the validation report with no verification reports or verified ERR figures. A significant discrepancy between the PDD (636,307 tCO₂e) and the validation report (90,901 tCO₂e) raises data-reliability concerns, and six material findings at validation (including a non-conservative baseline EF calculation) indicate the initial documentation required substantial correction.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠Total ERR claimed differs by a factor of ~7 between the PDD (636,307) and the validation report (90,901); the basis for the discrepancy is not explained in the extracted record.
• ⚠No verification reports or verified ERR figures are available in the extracted record, so actual delivery against the claimed 90,901 tCO₂e cannot be assessed.
• ⚠The validation report identified that the initial PDD baseline emission factor was rounded up rather than down (non-conservative), requiring recalculation and correction.
• ⚠Buffer pool percentage and reversal-event history are not stated in any available document.
