Audit Analysis

The Kantur-Akdaş Landfill Methane Recovery Project is a well-understood landfill gas capture project using established CDM methodologies, with a combined additionality test and no material findings. However, the available record consists solely of a PDD with no verification report, no monitoring report, and no identified VVB, leaving critical compliance and performance questions unanswered. The project-specific baseline, unquantified 0% leakage deduction, and absence of a buffer pool introduce moderate integrity and claim-safety risks.

Red Flags

  • No verification report or monitoring report is present in the extracted record; only the PDD (dated 2023-12-11) is available, so actual verification status and verified emission reductions cannot be confirmed.
  • No VVB (Validation/Verification Body) is identified in any available document, making it impossible to confirm independent third-party review.
  • Leakage deduction is 0% with only a 'deemed negligible' justification and no quantified analysis, which is thin for a project where displaced gas could migrate to other pathways.
  • No buffer pool percentage is stated, leaving permanence risk unmitigated in the available record.
