Analysis

The Samsun Landfill Gas to Energy Project has a solid additionality foundation (investment test confirmed by the VVB) and no reversal events, but is undermined by a project-specific modeled baseline, the absence of a stated buffer pool, and a long list of material findings and corrective actions related to operational underperformance and ER calculation errors. The project delivered roughly 125% of its pro-rata ex-ante expectation for the 2024 monitoring period, which is reassuring, yet the low extraction confidence and numerous documentation gaps limit overall confidence in the credit quality.

    No CORSIA label on the registry

    Not usable for airlines' CORSIA obligations.

    Source: registry label

  • Integrity label (ICVCM CCP)

    Methodology approved by ICVCMACM0001

    The methodology meets the Core Carbon Principles; this project's credits do not carry the CCP label yet.

  • Removal or reduction

    Emission reduction or avoidance

    Prevents or reduces emissions — fits contribution claims, not SBTi neutralisation.

  • Paris Agreement (Article 6)

    Not published

    This registry does not publish Article 6 authorizations.

Information only, from public sources. Claim rules (CORSIA, SBTi, EU rules on green claims) change: check them before making a public claim. Since 27 September 2026, EU consumer rules do not allow “climate neutral” product claims based on offsets.

Being within an ICVCM-approved version range is information only: it does not mean these credits carry the CCP label, which the registry assigns to each issuance.

A version is shown only when the document's own text writes it next to the methodology code. Current versions, status and CCP ranges come from the official pages linked, checked on the date shown.
