Renewable biomass based thermal energy generation by Pal Fashions, Palghar, Maharashtra, India

Audit Analysis

This biomass energy project (AMS-I.C., avoided uncontrolled burning of agricultural residues) by Pal Fashions in Palghar, India, is registered on the UCR registry with a claimed 76,282 tCO₂e over a 10-year crediting period. However, only a single PDD document is available, with no verification report, monitoring report, or VVB identification, leaving additionality, MRV quality, and actual delivery entirely unverified. The project type carries inherently low permanence risk, and the 0% leakage deduction is reasonable for the methodology, but the absence of any independent verification is a significant concern.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠No additionality assessment or test type found in the available PDD; additionality is a core requirement under AMS-I.C. and its absence is a material gap
• ⚠Only one document (the PDD) is available; no verification report, monitoring report, or VVB report exists in the record, making the 76,282 tCO₂e claim entirely unverified
• ⚠No VVB is identified, so independence of verification cannot be assessed
• ⚠No verified emission reduction figures exist to validate the claimed total, and no monitoring data is available for the 2013–2022 period
