Analysis

The Longhe 1.03 MW hydro project has a confirmed additionality assessment by TÜV NORD CERT and benefits from the inherently low reversal risk of a small hydro avoidance project. However, the verification process surfaced an extraordinary volume of material findings (over 50) and corrective actions (over 40), including missing contracts, IRR discrepancies, non-compliant monitoring, and a note that internal validation initially rejected the documentation. The project-specific baseline, contradictory leakage justifications, and absence of a stated buffer pool or baseline reassessment date further erode confidence in the integrity and documentation quality of the credit.
