Analysis

The Sichuan Rural Biogas Programme is a long-running Gold Standard project with 73 component households, confirmed additionality, and no reported reversal events. However, the project-specific baseline, absence of a buffer pool, contradictory leakage justifications, and an extensive catalogue of material findings and corrective actions across multiple monitoring cycles raise meaningful concerns about the robustness and consistency of the MRV process. The 2022 monitoring period shows the verified ERR matching the claimed value, but the lifetime ex-ante estimate is not available in the documents reviewed, limiting the ability to assess cumulative over- or under-delivery.
