Analysis

The Dry Creek Dairy BioFactory is a CAR-registered dairy biogas project in Idaho that has demonstrated operational capability but carries a significant integrity record: a material calculation error led to the over-issuance of 3,002 CRTs (since cancelled), a 441 tCO2e deduction was applied for baseline inconsistency in a prior period, and the flare operated at 0% destruction efficiency for roughly four months of the 2014 monitoring year. Additionality is confirmed by the VVB via a combined test, and the project is technology-based with no carbon-stock reversal risk, but the absence of any documented leakage treatment, safeguards, or baseline reassessment date leaves meaningful gaps in the evidence base.
