Assessment

Document-based rating

3.9/10

Low rating (3.5 to 4.9)

Evidence coverage: medium

How solid the credit is, as far as the registry's public documents show. Additionality and quantification start from a public grade; permanence starts at 5.0, the neutral point, where none applies, and claim safety always does.

Methodology v3 · documents read on 17 Oct 2026

Starting point

  • Additionality: CCQI's score for this type of project
  • Quantification: CCQI's score for this type of project
  • Claim safety: neutral (5.0) — no public grade of this type of project applies

No rule raised or lowered the number: it is the starting point.

Not counted in the number

  • The vintage: the registry records we hold show no issuance
  • The oldest vintage still on sale, the content of the safeguards and the verifier's quality: not among the facts read

    Covers: the project type, not a label on individual credits

  • Paris Agreement (Article 6)

    Not checked yet

    This registry publishes Article 6 authorizations, but CarbonMeld has not read this project's credit records yet: we cannot say whether any credits are authorized. Check on the registry.
