Hebei Chengde Weichang Wuxiangliang Wind Power Project

Audit Analysis

A CDM wind project in China with a jurisdictional grid baseline and VVB-confirmed additionality, but the validation report flagged a material deficiency in the common practice analysis (corrective action required) and nine clarifications on IRR and boundary parameters. No monitoring-period data or verified emission reductions were found in the extracted record, and extraction confidence was low, leaving delivery unverified. The project's crediting period (2012–2019) has closed, yet no post-validation monitoring evidence is available.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠Corrective Action 3: the common practice analysis in PDD v01 did not follow the step-wise approach required by the additionality tool v6.0.0, undermining the robustness of the additionality claim despite VVB sign-off.
• ⚠No monitoring-period data or verified emission-reduction figures were found in any available document; the 298,032 tCO₂e lifetime claim cannot be cross-checked against actual delivery.
• ⚠Nine clarifications (CL 1–CL 9) raised during validation touched on project boundary, IRR assumptions, capacity figures, and data-archiving compliance, indicating a weak initial PDD.
• ⚠Low extraction confidence across the document set means several key fields (monitoring period, verified ERR, FN/RB, usage rates) could not be confirmed.
