Audit Analysis

A registered VCS AMS-III.D anaerobic digestion project in China with VVB-confirmed additionality and recent monitoring data showing delivery at roughly 102% of pro-rata expectation. Key weaknesses include a project-specific modeled baseline, a 0% leakage deduction justified only as 'deemed negligible,' and the absence of a stated buffer pool or permanence mechanism. No outstanding corrective actions, and safeguards (FPIC, grievance mechanism) are documented.

Red Flags

  • No buffer pool percentage or permanence mechanism is stated in any available document, leaving reversal risk for the biogas digester unaddressed
  • Leakage deduction is 0% with justification only 'deemed negligible' — no quantified assessment or detailed rationale provided in the verification report
  • FNRB value and method are not stated in any extracted document, preventing independent verification of the emission factor used
  • Contradiction on benefit sharing: the verification report (Mar 2026) confirms it is described, while the monitoring report (Mar 2026) indicates it is not
