Audit Analysis

A Gold Standard biogas project in rural India with solid additionality (combined test, VVB-confirmed) and a quantified 5% leakage deduction, but weakened by a project-specific baseline, absence of a stated buffer pool, and unaddressed reversal considerations. ERR delivery for the latest monitoring period exceeds the pro-rata expectation, supporting claim credibility, though CORSIA eligibility introduces dual-channel risk and a FNRB method discrepancy between documents raises minor data-reliability concerns.

Red Flags

  • Reversal events are explicitly marked as 'not addressed' in the verification record, a gap even for a biogas project where feedstock supply disruption could reduce emissions reductions.
  • CORSIA eligibility is confirmed while CCP status is not mentioned, creating potential dual-channel allocation risk if credits are later registered in both systems.
  • FNRB method is reported as 'national_default' in the 2025 verification report but 'local_field' in the 2023 verification report, indicating a methodological shift that is not explained in the extracted record.
