Mega Metal PV Group

Audit Analysis
The Mega Metal PV Group is a 10-year solar PV project in Turkey registered under the ICR standard, with a jurisdictional baseline and a stated grid emission factor of 0.6261 tCO₂/kWh. However, the available record is limited to a PDD and supporting financial/appendix documents; no independent verification, monitoring data, or additionality test results were found. A contradiction between the PDD and an appendix on leakage treatment, combined with the absence of a buffer pool and any verified performance data, leaves significant uncertainty about the robustness of the claimed 301,270 tCO₂e reductions.
Red Flags
- No additionality test type or independent verification of additionality found in any available document
- Contradiction between the PDD (leakage deemed negligible) and an appendix (leakage quantified) on how leakage is treated
- No verified ERR, monitoring period, or VVB/verifier name found — performance claims are unverified
- No buffer pool or permanence mechanism documented for a 10-year crediting period
- Minimum extraction confidence rated low, indicating key documents were poorly readable or incomplete
