Heilongjiang Huanan Yimashan Wind Power Project

Audit Analysis

A CDM wind power project in China with VVB-confirmed additionality and a reasonable pro-rata credit delivery (~80% of expectation for the first monitoring period). However, significant transparency gaps persist: no verified ERR figure could be extracted, FNRB and usage-rate data are absent, and four contradictions across documents (leakage justification, baseline method, ERR figures, crediting period) reduce confidence in the data record.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠Total verified ERR is not stated in the extracted record despite a monitoring report existing for Sep 2011–May 2012, making independent over-crediting checks impossible
• ⚠Baseline method is contradictory: the validation report (Sep 2011) describes a jurisdictional baseline while the monitoring report (Jun 2012) refers to a project-specific baseline
• ⚠Leakage justification is inconsistent between documents — the validation report deems leakage negligible while the monitoring report states it was quantified, yet the deduction is 0% in both cases
• ⚠Crediting period differs between the PDD (2012-01-01 to 2018-12-31) and the monitoring report (2011-09-08 to 2018-09-07), creating ambiguity about the exact crediting window
