Audit Analysis

The Yunfu LFG Power Generation Project is a VCS-registered landfill gas-to-energy project with a VVB-confirmed combined additionality test and a project-specific baseline appropriate for the sector. The verification report (January 2026) confirms 162,525 tCO₂e for the first monitoring period, which exceeds the pro-rata PDD expectation, and no material non-conformities were found beyond a minor parameter rounding discrepancy. Several cross-document contradictions (baseline type, leakage justification, benefit-sharing description) and gaps in CORSIA/usage-monitoring data temper the overall confidence.

Red Flags

  • Five cross-document contradictions identified (baseline type, ERR figures, reversal events, benefit sharing, leakage justification), indicating inconsistent reporting across the PDD, validation report, monitoring report, and verification report.
  • Leakage deduction of 0% is justified only as 'deemed negligible' in the verification report, while the validation report records leakage as 'not addressed' — the justification is thin for a project where displaced gas could theoretically be flared or released.
  • CORSIA eligibility and usage-monitoring method are not stated in any available document, leaving the dual-channel and end-use verification picture incomplete.

Risk Indicators

Additionality

VVB-confirmed combined test; capture not legally required

Leakage

0% deduction; 'deemed negligible' justification is thin; val

Baseline

Project-specific baseline; measured per VR but PDD says mode

Safeguards

FPIC conducted; grievance mechanism present; benefit sharing

Double-claim

CCP eligible; CORSIA status not stated in available document
