Lapwall Factory 2

Audit Analysis

Lapwall Factory 2 is a Puro-standard carbon removal project in Finland that captures CO₂ for use in building materials, verified by DNV with no material findings or corrective actions. However, the extracted record is notably sparse on fundamental integrity parameters—additionality, baseline method, leakage treatment, and reversal risk are all absent from the available documents, limiting confidence in the project's robustness. The 10% buffer pool and 50-year permanence claim are positive, but the overall evidentiary base is thin for a high-confidence assessment.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠Additionality test type and VVB confirmation are not stated in any available document, leaving the project's additionality claim unverified in the extracted record
• ⚠Leakage deduction and justification are entirely absent from the verification report and other documents, despite this being a materials-use project where displaced material could shift emissions
• ⚠Baseline method and last reassessment date are not documented, making it impossible to independently assess the counterfactual
• ⚠Total ERR claimed and verified are identical (5,428.08 tCO₂), with no ex-ante lifetime figure available to benchmark the monitoring-period result against a pro-rata expectation
