Audit Analysis
A VCS-registered building energy efficiency project in Nanjing, China, with a 10-year crediting period and 14,420 tCO₂e ex-ante estimate. The VVB (CCSC) confirmed additionality via an investment test and identified three material findings—including a 34% discrepancy in rooftop solar PV capacity—that were addressed through corrective actions. Several transparency and documentation gaps (unspecified CORSIA/CCP status, one unidentifiable document, medium extraction confidence) temper an otherwise moderate-quality submission.
Red Flags
- Material finding: reported solar PV capacity of 350 kW was inconsistent with actual installed capacity of 470.6 kW, requiring recalculation of emission reductions
- Baseline method contradiction: validation report states 'project' baseline while the PDD references a 'jurisdictional' baseline
- Leakage justification contradiction: validation report states 'deemed negligible' while the PDD (2021) does not address leakage at all
- Additionality demonstration method required correction to align with TOOL01/TOOL21 (simple cost analysis) per the validation report
