Audit Analysis
A CDM wind project (ACM0002 v08) with VVB-confirmed additionality and a standard jurisdictional grid-emission-factor baseline. The project is fundamentally sound for its type, but data reliability is undermined by contradictions in leakage justification, baseline classification, and claimed ER figures across monitoring reports, and key verification data (verified ERs, FPIC, grievance mechanism) are absent from the extracted record.
Red Flags
- Claimed ER figures differ between two monitoring reports (92,709 in the 2012 report vs 118,643 in the 2011 report), with no explanation for the ~22% discrepancy
- Baseline method is characterised as 'project' in the 2012 monitoring report but 'jurisdictional' in the PDD, creating ambiguity about the baseline basis
- Leakage justification shifts from 'deemed negligible' (validation report, 2009) to 'quantified' (monitoring report, 2012) while the deduction remains 0%, leaving the quantification basis unclear
- No FPIC or grievance mechanism is documented in any available record, despite safeguards being mentioned
