Heilongjiang Fujin 48MW Wind Power Project

Audit Analysis

A 48 MW onshore wind project in Heilongjiang, China, registered under CDM with a combined additionality test confirmed by VVB TOY NORD. The project's avoidance-based design (displacing grid electricity) carries low permanence risk, and the 0% leakage deduction is reasonable for wind. However, a contradiction in the baseline method description between the PDD and the monitoring report, combined with the absence of a verified ERR figure, limits confidence in the credit quantity.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠Baseline method is described as 'project' in the 2022 monitoring report but 'jurisdictional' in the 2012 PDD — an unresolved inconsistency that could affect the validity of the emission factor applied.
• ⚠No verified ERR figure was found in any available document, making it impossible to confirm actual delivery against the 729,140 tCO₂e lifetime claim.
• ⚠Five material findings were raised during validation (missing host-country approval, turbine type inconsistency, methodology version, threshold analysis, crediting start date); all were subsequently resolved, but the cluster of issues suggests initial documentation quality was below standard.
