Huadian Haiyuan Wuyuan Second Phase 49.5MW Wind Power Project

Audit Analysis

A 49.5 MW onshore wind project in China under CDM with a standard methodology (ACM0002) and VVB-confirmed additionality, but the available record is limited to a 2012 validation report and PDD with no monitoring data, a significant ERR figure discrepancy between documents, and 18 corrective actions flagged by the VVB. The project's low inherent risk (grid-displacement wind) is offset by the absence of any verified emissions data and low document extraction confidence.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠ERR figure discrepancy: the PDD (Nov 2012) reports 562,471 tCO₂e while the validation report (Dec 2012) reports 80,353 tCO₂e — a 7× difference that, while likely reflecting a lifetime-vs-annual basis, is not explicitly reconciled in the documents
• ⚠18 corrective actions were raised by TÜV SÜD in the validation report, covering additionality justification, IRR methodology, bank contract verification, and PDD completeness — indicating a weak initial submission
• ⚠No monitoring reports, verified ERR, or usage monitoring method are present in the extracted record, making it impossible to confirm actual delivery against the ex-ante estimate
• ⚠Minimum extraction confidence is rated low, meaning at least one key document was poorly readable and critical data may be missing
