Score Breakdown

Integrity

verified Additionality was confirmed by the VVB, and the project uses ACM0002 under VCS, which supports a recognized methodology framework.

missing Leakage is not addressed in the latest record, reversal events are not addressed, and the issuance report lists multiple corrective actions affecting core quantification and verification.

Transparency

verified The monitoring period, VVB name, and both claimed and verified ERR totals are disclosed in the issuance record.

missing The issuance record contains seven material findings and requests major report revisions, including missing baseline calculations and a missing net ERR equation, which weakens reporting clarity.

Claim Safety

verified The project is explicitly marked as not CORSIA-eligible, which reduces dual-market claim risk.

missing The verified ERR total of 108,181 is far below the claimed 143,289, and the record contains contradictions on leakage, additionality testing, and credited emissions.

Documentation

verified There are many extracted documents in the record, and the monitoring period is relatively recent, ending in 2023.

missing The extraction confidence is only medium, the evidence docs are not identified, and the issuance record shows extensive follow-up actions that indicate incomplete documentation.

Detailed Analysis

Integrity

The project benefits from VVB-confirmed additionality and a standard renewable methodology, which are positive integrity signals. However, the latest issuance record says leakage is not addressed, reversal events are not addressed, and there are seven material findings plus multiple corrective actions tied to baseline calculations, net ERR equations, and supporting data. That combination suggests only moderate confidence in the robustness of the crediting claim.

Transparency

The record discloses the monitoring period, the verifier, and both claimed and verified emission reductions, which helps transparency. But the issuance document also requests substantial revisions to the monitoring report and verification report, including baseline calculations, a net ERR equation, and clearer conclusions on implementation and quantification. Those gaps reduce the clarity and auditability of the public record.

Claim Safety

Claim safety is weakened by the large gap between claimed and verified emission reductions, with 143,289 claimed versus 108,181 verified in the latest issuance record. The project is marked as not CORSIA-eligible, which helps, but the contradictions on leakage treatment, additionality test type, and credited emissions indicate a meaningful over-crediting and reliability risk. The latest record is more conservative than earlier documents, so I privileged the 2023 issuance record because it is the most recent and appears to be the highest-priority source for the final credited amount.

Documentation

Documentation is only moderate because the record includes many extracted documents and a recent monitoring period, but the extraction confidence is medium rather than high. The issuance record also lists numerous corrective actions and references missing supporting materials, including calibration certificates and stakeholder consultation records. That suggests the documentation package is incomplete even if the project is formally registered and monitored.

Overall

I privileged the latest issuance record for conflicting values because it is the most recent and appears to reflect the final verification outcome. Where contradictions exist, I treated them as reliability concerns rather than ignoring them: for example, I used the 2023 leakage treatment of not addressed over the earlier deemed-negligible statement, the 2023 combined additionality test over the earlier investment test, and the 2023 verified ERR total of 108,181 over the earlier claimed figure. The project is not a high-risk double-claim case because it is explicitly not CORSIA-eligible and CCP status is not stated, but the many contradictions and corrective actions justify a cautious mid-range score.

Audit Analysis

This wind project has some positive integrity signals, including VVB-confirmed additionality and a registered VCS status, but the evidence base is weakened by multiple unresolved reporting gaps. The latest issuance record also shows several material contradictions and many corrective actions, which lowers confidence in the claimed emission reductions and the completeness of the monitoring package.

Project Description

Proponent: Yalova Rüzgar Enerjisinden Elektrik Üretim Anonim Sirketi Protocol categories: Energy industries (renewable/non-renewable sources) Protocols: ACM0002 Estimated annual GHG reductions: 108181 tCO2e Region: Asia Registration date: 2020-04-06

Red Flags

  • The issuance record lists seven material findings and numerous corrective actions, including missing baseline calculations, missing net ERR equation, missing calibration certificates, and a missing no-double-counting undertaking.
  • Key safeguards and project design elements are inconsistently documented across documents, including contradictions on grievance mechanisms, FPIC, additionality test type, leakage treatment, and credited emissions.

Cosa migliorerebbe questo punteggio

  • Publish a clean, reconciled monitoring and verification package that resolves the contradictions and includes the missing baseline calculations, net ERR equation, and supporting data.
  • Provide explicit leakage treatment, reversal assessment, and complete safeguard evidence, including the grievance register, stakeholder consultation records, and no-double-counting undertaking.

Questi suggerimenti indicano quali prove pubbliche aggiuntive potrebbero migliorare il livello di confidenza di questa valutazione. Non garantiscono un punteggio futuro più alto.
