Analysis

A CDM reforestation project in Andhra Pradesh with VVB-confirmed additionality and quantified leakage, but significant evidence gaps in permanence safeguards (no buffer pool or reversal-event data reported for this AFOLU project) and a project-specific baseline. The monitoring report shows the project delivered roughly 75% of its pro-rata ex-ante expectation, indicating conservative crediting, though 49 corrective action requests during validation and unresolved contradictions in ERR figures temper confidence.
