Audit Analysis
A CDM wind farm project with VVB-confirmed additionality and a reasonable zero-leakage assumption, but undermined by seven corrective action requests during validation, a project-specific baseline, and a complete absence of monitoring or verification data. The project's crediting period ended in 2019, and no post-validation evidence of actual delivery is available in the extracted record.
Red Flags
- Seven corrective action requests (CARs) were raised during validation, covering errors in emission reduction calculations, investment analysis, common practice analysis, and monitoring plan inconsistencies — indicating significant PDD quality issues at the time of approval.
- No monitoring reports, verification reports, or verified ERR figures are present in the extracted record, making it impossible to confirm whether the 664,783 tCO2e claimed were actually delivered.
- The grid emission factor of 0.963575 tCO2/MWh is from 2009 and no updated or reassessed value is documented.
- One of the five source documents could not be identified (listed as 'unknown'), reducing confidence in the completeness of the evidence base.
