Sonnenerde PyroDry
Audit Analysis
Sonnenerde PyroDry is a biochar carbon-removal project in Austria verified by bio.inspecta AG under the Puro.earth standard. Additionality is confirmed via an investment test and no material findings or corrective actions were reported, but the project record contains no quantified emission reduction figures, no buffer pool allocation, and no leakage treatment, leaving significant gaps in permanence and claim verification.
Red Flags
- No emission reduction figures (claimed, verified, or ex-ante lifetime) are present in any available document, making over-crediting risk unassessable
- A 100-year permanence claim is made without a stated buffer pool percentage or any reversal-event data
- No leakage deduction or justification is documented for a biochar project where displaced-use leakage is a recognised risk
- No functional nitrogen retention baseline (FN-RB) value or method is stated
