Analysis

A VCS-registered water purification project in Cambodia with VVB-verified additionality and a quantified 5% leakage deduction, but undermined by nine cross-document contradictions—most critically a 40× gap between the PDD's lifetime ERR estimate (35,741 tCO₂e) and the verified 18-month figure (884 tCO₂e), which represents only ~16% of the pro-rata expectation. The verification report flags a non-permanence risk analysis while no buffer pool percentage is stated, and the PDD appears to describe an earlier iteration of the project (different crediting period, different leakage and usage assumptions).

  • Integrity label (ICVCM CCP)

    No ICVCM information

    No CCP label and no ICVCM decision found for this project's methodology.

  • Removal or reduction

    Emission reduction or avoidance

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

  • Paris Agreement (Article 6)

    Not checked yet

    This registry publishes Article 6 authorizations, but CarbonMeld has not read this project's credit records yet: we cannot say whether any credits are authorized. Check on the registry.

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.
