CarbonMeld's document-based rating gives Replacement of Fossil Fuel by Palm Kernel Shell Biomass in the production of Portland Cement (CDM-0247) no number (No public grade applies yet): CarbonMeld read its documents, but its type of project does not yet have a public grade that applies to it on both additionality and quantification. The absence of a number says nothing about the project's quality.
