Score Breakdown

Integrity

verified Additionality was confirmed by the VVB using an investment test, which supports the project’s core crediting claim.

missing Leakage is not addressed in the verification report, buffer pool coverage is not stated, and corrective actions were required for inconsistent monitoring values.

Transparency

verified The verification report identifies the VVB, monitoring period, and equal claimed versus verified emissions reductions of 296,625 credits.

missing Low extraction confidence and missing details on usage monitoring, buffer pool, and baseline reassessment reduce documentation clarity.

Claim Safety

verified The project is a renewable power activity under VCS with a project baseline and no material findings reported in verification.

missing The claimed and verified emissions reductions are large and the record shows contradictions on both leakage treatment and emissions reduction totals across documents.

Documentation

verified Twenty-two documents were used and the verification report is dated 2023-08-04, which is relatively recent for the stated monitoring period.

missing Min extraction confidence is low, and the report itself flags inconsistencies between the monitoring report and ER sheet.

Detailed Analysis

Integrity

The verification report confirms additionality through an investment test and says the VVB verified the project, which is a positive sign for credit integrity. At the same time, leakage is not addressed in the latest report, buffer pool coverage is not stated, and corrective actions were required because emissions reduction and electricity generation values were inconsistent in the monitoring materials. The baseline is project-specific rather than jurisdictional, and the last reassessment date is not found in the extracted record.

Transparency

The record includes the VVB name, the monitoring period from 2021-01-01 to 2022-12-31, and matching claimed and verified reductions of 296,625, which helps traceability. However, usage monitoring is not stated, buffer pool information is missing, and the extraction confidence is low, which suggests at least one key source was hard to read. The absence of a clear baseline reassessment date also limits transparency.

Claim Safety

Claim safety is moderate because the project is a renewable energy activity under VCS and the verification report reports no material findings. That said, the large emissions reduction claim is complicated by documented inconsistencies in the monitoring report and ER sheet, and the later report changes leakage treatment from not applicable to not addressed. With CORSIA eligibility and CCP status not stated, dual-claim risk cannot be ruled out from the extracted record.

Documentation

Documentation quality is weakened by low extraction confidence and by the fact that the evidence list contains only an unknown source label even though 22 documents were used. The verification report is recent relative to the monitoring period, but key fields such as buffer pool, usage monitoring, baseline reassessment, and reversal details are not found in the extracted record. The presence of corrective actions also indicates that the documentation package was not fully consistent.

Overall

I privileged the 2023-08-04 verification report over the earlier 2021-04-17 material because it is the more recent and higher-priority assurance document. On the contradictions, I used the later report’s leakage status of not addressed and the later 296,625 emissions reduction figures, but I discounted confidence because the report itself flags inconsistencies with earlier monitoring values. Overall, the project looks viable but not high confidence due to documentation gaps, contradictory figures, and weak leakage treatment.

Audit Analysis

The project has some strengths: additionality was confirmed by the VVB, the project is registered under VCS, and the verification report shows no material findings. However, reliability is weakened by low extraction confidence, unresolved inconsistencies in emissions reduction figures, and corrective actions noting mismatches between the monitoring report and ER sheet. Leakage treatment is weakly documented, and several key items such as buffer pool coverage, usage monitoring, and CORSIA status are not stated in the extracted record.

Project Description

Proponent: Animala Wind Power Private Limited Protocol categories: Energy industries (renewable/non-renewable sources) Protocols: ACM0002 Estimated annual GHG reductions: 163843 tCO2e Region: Asia Registration date: 2019-05-21

Red Flags

  • The verification report requires corrective actions because emissions reduction and electricity generation values are inconsistent across documents.
  • Leakage is not addressed in the available record, and the earlier document reportedly treated it as not applicable while the later verification report says it is not addressed.

Cosa migliorerebbe questo punteggio

  • Publish a clear reconciliation of the emissions reduction and electricity generation discrepancies across the monitoring report, ER sheet, and verification report.
  • State leakage treatment, buffer pool coverage, baseline reassessment timing, and usage monitoring methodology explicitly in the public documentation.

Questi suggerimenti indicano quali prove pubbliche aggiuntive potrebbero migliorare il livello di confidenza di questa valutazione. Non garantiscono un punteggio futuro più alto.
