Audit Analysis
A CDM small-hydropower project in Hainan, China, validated in 2011 with a combined additionality test confirmed by the VVB (GLC) and a jurisdictional grid-emission-factor baseline. The project is an avoidance-type (displacing grid electricity), so permanence and leakage risks are inherently low, and the 0% leakage deduction is reasonable. However, the available record contains only the validation-stage documentation; no monitoring reports, verified ERR figures, or post-validation verification data were found, limiting the ability to confirm actual delivery against the 243,817 tCO₂e lifetime claim.
Red Flags
- No monitoring reports or verified ERR figures found in the extracted record; the 243,817 tCO₂e claim cannot be cross-checked against actual delivery for the 2011–2018 crediting period.
- 13 Corrective Action Requests and 12 Clarification Requests were raised during validation (including corrections to investment/depreciation rates and sensitivity-analysis ranges), indicating the initial PDD contained material financial-assumption errors.
Credit Vintages
No issuances recorded on the registry.
