Analysis

A CDM small hydropower project in China with a VVB-verified investment additionality test and a jurisdictional grid-emission-factor baseline. The project delivered only about 40% of its pro-rata ex-ante expectation for the monitored period, and an internal contradiction in the claimed ERR figures within the same monitoring report raises data-reliability concerns. Overall a moderately sound project with notable under-delivery and documentation inconsistencies.
