Analysis

A CDM biomass heating project in Moldova with a VVB-confirmed investment additionality test and a reputable verifier (TÜV NORD CERT), but undermined by a major discrepancy between the PDD and monitoring report on lifetime emission reductions (57,810 vs 23,124 tCO₂e), a thin 0% leakage justification, and several biomass-specific data gaps (feedstock sustainability, carbon content, usage monitoring). The project's claim safety is further weakened by a material finding noting a discrepancy in emission reduction tables within the PDD itself.
