Heilongjiang Wanyuan Biomass Cogeneration Project

Audit Analysis

A CDM biomass cogeneration project validated by DNV in 2012 with a confirmed investment additionality test, but the available record is limited to the validation phase with no monitoring reports or verified emission reductions. A seven-fold discrepancy between the PDD and validation report on total claimed reductions, combined with a project-specific baseline and zero leakage deduction, raises meaningful data-reliability and over-crediting concerns.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠Total ERR in the PDD (313,243 tCO₂e) is roughly seven times the figure in the validation report (44,749 tCO₂e), indicating a major inconsistency in the project's claimed reductions.
• ⚠No buffer pool or permanence mechanism is documented, and no reversal-event data is available for this biomass project.
• ⚠No monitoring reports or verified emission reductions are present in the extracted record; the project's actual performance is unconfirmed.
• ⚠Leakage is set at 0% with a 'deemed negligible' justification, yet an appendix document references a quantified leakage treatment, creating an unresolved contradiction.
