Audit Analysis

A waste-energy-recovery co-generation project in Korea that displaces flared waste gas and grid electricity, with VVB-confirmed additionality and no applicable permanence risk. The project over-delivers relative to its ex-ante estimate, but numerous documentation gaps, corrective actions, and a project-specific baseline moderate confidence. Low extraction confidence and multiple report inconsistencies reduce transparency and documentation scores.

Red Flags

  • 16 corrective actions required across monitoring and verification reports, including inconsistent emission factors, missing calibration dates, and unit mismatches (M3 vs Nm3 for LNG)
  • Verification report referenced VCS v3.7 instead of the applicable v4.0, and project title was inconsistent between monitoring and verification reports
  • Low extraction confidence across 15 documents, indicating at least one key document was poorly readable or incomplete
  • CORSIA eligibility and CCP status are not stated in any available document, leaving dual-channel risk unassessed
