Audit Analysis

A grid-connected solar PV project in China under Gold Standard with a jurisdictional baseline and a combined additionality test, but the VVB did not explicitly confirm additionality, which is a notable integrity gap. Monitoring data is internally consistent and the project delivered roughly 75% of the pro-rata ex-ante expectation for the verified period. CORSIA and CCP eligibility are not stated, leaving dual-channel risk unaddressed.

Red Flags

  • Additionality was assessed via a combined test but was not confirmed by the VVB (TÜV Rheinland), leaving the additionality claim unverified by the independent body.
  • CORSIA eligibility and CCP status are not stated in any available document, leaving the project's dual-channel crediting risk unassessed.
  • A Clarification Request was raised in the verification report regarding the selection of minimum vs. maximum imported electricity values for conservative calculation, indicating some ambiguity in the baseline boundary.
