Analysis

The Veer (NLBC) Small Hydro Power Project is a VCS-registered renewable energy project with a sound additionality design (investment test confirmed by RINA SpA) and a jurisdictional grid-emission-factor baseline. However, the verification process surfaced numerous material findings—including a 16-month meter calibration gap, editorial errors, and missing monitoring records—that undermine confidence in the MRV chain. The project delivered roughly 133% of its pro-rata ex-ante expectation for the elapsed monitoring period, which is consistent with weather-driven over-generation in small hydro.
