Analysis

The RIMA Fuel Switch project in Bocaiúva is a CDM biomass energy project (AMS-I.C.) with VVB-confirmed additionality via a combined test, but it carries moderate concerns around a project-specific baseline, a thin 0% leakage justification, and several missing monitoring and feedstock-sustainability data points. The verified ERR figure is absent from the extracted record, limiting the ability to confirm over- or under-delivery. Overall the project is a mid-tier CDM credit with standardised methodology safeguards offsetting gaps in transparency and baseline robustness.
