Kantur-Akdaş Landfill Methane Recovery Project - 5

Audit Analysis

The Kantur-Akdaş Landfill Methane Recovery Project presents a combined additionality test and a project-specific baseline, but the available record consists solely of the PDD with no verification report, monitoring report, or named VVB. Key integrity elements such as buffer pool, verified emissions reductions, and a robust leakage justification are absent, leaving the project's additionality and permanence claims largely unverified.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠No verification report or monitoring report is available; the entire evidence base is a single PDD document
• ⚠Additionality test (combined) is not confirmed by a named VVB, leaving the additionality claim unverified
• ⚠Leakage deduction of 0% is justified only as 'deemed negligible' with no quantified analysis
• ⚠No buffer pool or permanence mechanism is documented for a project with a 10-year crediting period
• ⚠No verified ERR figures exist to assess whether the project is over- or under-delivering against its 191,146 tCO₂e lifetime claim
