Analysis

The Tangipahoa GHG Project is a CAR-registered landfill gas capture project with VVB-verified additionality and a measured baseline, but it is undermined by a direct contradiction on whether gas capture is legally required, a substantial list of environmental compliance findings including a consolidated LDEQ compliance order, and the complete absence of any leakage treatment in the available documents. The ERR figures also show a significant discrepancy between two verification reports, limiting confidence in the credit quantity.

Eligibility & market

What can you claim with this credit?

Four checks buyers ask about, from the registry and the Integrity Council (ICVCM).

    Not usable for airlines' CORSIA obligations.

    Source: registry label

  • Integrity label (ICVCM CCP)

    The Integrity Council approved some versions of this protocol and not others: check which version the project uses before claiming CCP quality.

  • Removal or reduction

    Emission reduction or avoidance

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

  • Paris Agreement (Article 6)

    No Article 6 authorization

    No corresponding adjustment: the host country can also count this reduction towards its own target.

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.
