Audit Analysis
A 49.5 MW onshore wind project in Inner Mongolia, China, verified under Gold Standard with a VVB-confirmed investment additionality test and a standard grid-emission-factor baseline. The project shows no reversal risk and a conservative ex-ante estimate (verified output exceeded pro-rata expectation by ~26%), but six material findings, two outstanding corrective actions, and the absence of FPIC temper the overall assessment.
Red Flags
- Six material findings in the 2017 verification report, including incomplete metering calibration documentation (CR#1, CR#2) and an unresolved project start-date inconsistency between PDD v01 and the registered GS-VER-PDD
- Free, Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC) was not conducted, despite the project being in a pastoral region of Inner Mongolia
- Two corrective actions remain open: provision of power-meter calibration reports and further evidence for SDG indicator monitoring
- Contradiction in baseline method: the 2017 verification report labels it 'project' while the 2016 monitoring report labels it 'jurisdictional' — the grid-EF approach (jurisdictional) is the methodologically correct one for ACM0002
