Audit Analysis
The Kapıdağ Wind Power Plant is a grid-connected renewable energy project under the ICR standard with a jurisdictional baseline and a combined additionality test, and no reversals or material findings were reported. However, a significant discrepancy between two PDD versions on the lifetime emission reduction estimate (227,454 vs 86,924 tCO₂) raises data-reliability concerns, and the absence of a named VVB, verified ERR figure, and monitoring report in the evidence record limits confidence in the project's MRV chain.
Red Flags
- Lifetime ERR estimate differs by a factor of ~2.6 between two PDD versions (86,924 in the May 2025 PDD vs 227,454 in the July 2025 PDD); if the lower figure is correct, the claimed 178,138 tCO₂ would exceed the entire lifetime estimate
- No verification body name is stated in the extracted record, and no verification or monitoring report appears in the evidence documents, leaving the additionality test and ERR figures unconfirmed by an independent third party
- Benefit-sharing is described in the PDD but contradicted by the appendix (both dated 2025-07-23), creating ambiguity about stakeholder engagement commitments
