Wuhan Chenjiachong Landfill Gas Power Generation Project Phase II

Audit Analysis

A registered VCS landfill-gas-to-energy project with VVB-confirmed additionality and a measured project-specific baseline, but the verification report (Jan 2025) raised three material findings and nine corrective actions centred on inconsistent monitoring data, unexplained operating-hour gaps, and non-traceable ERR parameters. The 0% leakage deduction is supported by a quantified justification, though the same monitoring report also describes it as 'deemed negligible,' creating an internal inconsistency. Overall the project is structurally sound but carries meaningful data-quality risk that the VVB has flagged for correction.

Project Description

Red Flags

• ⚠Three material findings in the Jan 2025 verification report: incorrect SDG targets, unexplained reduced operating hours in Apr–May 2024, and non-traceable / inconsistent GHG parameter values between the MR and ERR sheet
• ⚠Nine corrective actions required by the VVB, including missing flare-system instrumentation details and inconsistent ex-ante vs. reported ERR values
• ⚠Leakage justification is internally contradictory within the same monitoring report (2025-01-17): one section states 'quantified' while another states 'deemed negligible'
• ⚠FPIC status is contradictory: the verification report (2025) confirms it was conducted, but the PDD (2022) records it as not conducted
• ⚠Low minimum extraction confidence across the 17-document evidence set, reducing reliability of the structured data
