Red Sea Power Wind Farm

Audit Analysis

The Red Sea Power Wind Farm is a straightforward renewable-energy project under VCS methodology ACM0002 with a jurisdictional (grid-based) baseline, a VVB-confirmed combined additionality test, and no permanence or reversal risk. The verified emissions reductions for the 18-month monitoring period (135,927 tCO₂) match the claimed figure exactly, indicating no over-crediting. However, eight contradictions across documents, several unstated eligibility statuses (CORSIA, CCP), and a shifting leakage justification between monitoring periods introduce moderate data-reliability concerns.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠Eight contradictions between documents, including conflicting baseline method (jurisdictional vs. project-specific), additionality test type (combined vs. first-of-its-kind), and crediting period start dates, reducing confidence in the extracted record.
• ⚠Leakage justification changed from 'quantified' in the December 2024 monitoring report to 'deemed negligible' in the September 2025 monitoring report, with the deduction remaining at 0% in both cases.
• ⚠CORSIA eligibility and CCP status are not stated in any available document, leaving dual-channel and market-eligibility risk unassessed.
• ⚠A total ERR figure of 1,118,169 tCO₂ appears in an undated, unidentified source, conflicting with the 135,927 tCO₂ in the validation report; the provenance of the higher figure is unclear.
