TREE PLANTATION PROGRAMME IN DIFFERENT STATES OF INDIA PHASE 2
#14of 80 in ARR (afforestation)#2of 9 in IN#27of 154 in Intl. Carbon Registry (ICR)#4of 6 in ACM0003
Audit Analysis
A 15-year afforestation project in India using the A/R-ACM0003 methodology with a 10% buffer pool and no reported reversals. Key gaps include the absence of a named verification body, a project-specific (non-jurisdictional) baseline, and a contradiction in verified emission reduction figures between two PDD versions. The project delivered roughly 7% of the pro-rata lifetime expectation for the elapsed monitoring period, which is consistent with the slow early-growth sequestration curve of young trees.
Red Flags
- Contradiction in verified ERR: 61,403 tCO₂ (PDD, 2025-10-13) vs 50,573 tCO₂ (PDD, 2025-08-05) — a ~21% discrepancy between two PDD versions raises data-reliability concerns
- Verification body name is not stated in any available document, making independent verification of additionality and MRV unverifiable
- Baseline is project-specific rather than jurisdictional, and no reassessment date is recorded
