Audit Analysis
The Yaylaköy Wind Power Project is a standard VCS renewable energy project with confirmed additionality via an investment test and a jurisdictional grid baseline. However, the permanence risk is inadequately addressed, the grid emission factor dates to 2011, and a notable discrepancy exists between the monitoring report's ERR figure (122,458) and the VVB-verified figure (72,691). Low extraction confidence across the document set and multiple inter-document contradictions reduce overall confidence in the data record.
Red Flags
- ERR discrepancy: the 2021 monitoring report reports 122,458 tCO₂e while the 2024 verification report confirms only 72,691 tCO₂e for the same monitoring period — a 41% gap that is unexplained in the available documents
- Grid emission factor of 0.5833 tCO₂/MWh is from 2011; if Turkey's grid mix has shifted toward renewables since then, the displacement benefit may be over-estimated
- Minimum extraction confidence is rated 'low', indicating at least one key document was poorly readable, reducing reliability of the extracted data
