Proyecto de Generación de Energía Solar Fotovoltaica La Loma

Audit Analysis

A small solar PV project in Colombia with a verified additionality test and jurisdictional baseline, but hampered by extensive documentation deficiencies, a significant under-delivery relative to ex-ante expectations (~48% of pro-rata), and multiple unresolved contradictions across project documents. The project's fundamental design is sound for its type, but data quality and reporting consistency raise material concerns about claim reliability.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠Project delivered only ~48% of the pro-rata ex-ante expectation for the elapsed monitoring period (139.6 tCO2e vs ~293 tCO2e expected), indicating potential over-crediting in the lifetime estimate
• ⚠30+ material findings in the verification/monitoring process, including inconsistent GHG reduction figures, solar panel count discrepancy (460Wp vs 540Wp), and missing uncertainty quantification
• ⚠FPIC status contradicts between the monitoring report (not conducted) and the validation report (conducted), with no resolution documented
• ⚠Low extraction confidence across the document set, limiting assurance that all material data was captured
