Audit Analysis

A 12 MW biomass power project in India replacing coal-fired generation, verified by DNV with a jurisdictional baseline and VVB-confirmed investment additionality. The project delivered approximately 71% of its pro-rata ex-ante expectation for the first monitoring period, indicating conservative crediting. However, data-quality issues (missing biomass records, meter calibration delays), absent safeguards detail (no FPIC or grievance mechanism documented), and a 'late to verify' registry status temper confidence.

Red Flags

  • Registry status is 'Late to verify', indicating the project fell behind its verification schedule
  • Four corrective actions were required in the verification report, including missing biomass consumption data for January 2009 and delayed meter calibration
  • No FPIC or grievance mechanism is documented despite safeguards being mentioned
  • FNRB value and usage monitoring method are not stated in the extracted record
