Analysis

The Ituiutaba Ceramic Fuel Switching Project is a VCS-registered avoidance project (AMS-I.E.) that switches industrial kiln fuel to biomass. Additionality is VVB-confirmed and leakage is quantified at 5%, but the project-specific baseline, 13 closed corrective action requests, and numerous cross-document data inconsistencies temper confidence in the underlying data quality. The project delivered approximately 124% of the pro-rata emission reduction expectation for the elapsed monitoring period, suggesting no over-crediting.
