Audit Analysis
A CDM wind project validated by Lloyd's Register with a confirmed combined additionality test and no inherent reversal risk, but undermined by seven material findings at validation, a 0% leakage deduction with no explicit justification in the most recent monitoring report, and a significant internal contradiction in reported emission reduction figures. The absence of verified ERR data and the use of a 2005 grid emission factor for a project running through 2016 introduce moderate over-crediting risk.
Red Flags
- Seven material findings (CARs) at validation including emission factor errors, unaddressed electricity imports from the Northeast China Grid, backup power calculation ambiguity, and operational life inconsistency with the FSR
- Contradiction within the same 2016 monitoring report: total ERR stated as both 302,563 and 31,394, creating uncertainty about the actual credit volume
- Leakage justification recorded as 'not addressed' in the 2016 monitoring report, contradicting the 2012 report which stated it was quantified
- Total verified ERR figure is not stated in any available document, preventing independent verification of claimed reductions
