Audit Analysis

The Kayaduzu Wind Power Plant is a Gold Standard wind avoidance project with VVB-confirmed additionality, a closed-out corrective action record, and verified generation exceeding the pro-rata expectation by roughly 49%. However, the project-specific baseline (contradicting the PDD's jurisdictional claim), CORSIA eligibility creating dual-channel risk, and low extraction confidence across 18 documents temper the overall assessment.

Red Flags

  • CORSIA eligibility is confirmed while CCP status is not stated, creating potential dual-channel crediting risk
  • Baseline method is described as 'project-specific' in the 2024 verification report but 'jurisdictional' in the PDD — the more conservative (project-specific) reading is privileged
  • Minimum extraction confidence is rated low, meaning at least one key document was poorly readable and some facts may be incomplete
  • Grid emission factor is from 2018 (six years old at the time of the 2024 verification), and no updated factor or methodology for updating is stated
