Analysis

The Sudbury Road Landfill Gas Destruction Project is a long-running CAR-registered methane capture project verified by TÜV SÜD America, with additionality confirmed via a combined test. However, the verification record reveals significant data-quality challenges (multiple flow-meter calibration variances, a 10% discount for data gaps, and an EPA ECHO non-compliance notice), a project-specific baseline, and no documented leakage treatment or safeguards. The contradiction on whether gas capture was legally required (stated as required in a 2011 document but not required in the 2024 verification) introduces material uncertainty into the additionality claim.

Eligibility & market

What can you claim with this credit?

Four checks buyers ask about, from the registry and the Integrity Council (ICVCM).

    No CORSIA label on the registry

    Not usable for airlines' CORSIA obligations.

    Source: registry label

  • Integrity label (ICVCM CCP)

    Methodology approved for some versionsCAR U.S. Landfill Protocol

    The Integrity Council approved some versions of this protocol and not others: check which version the project uses before claiming CCP quality.

  • Removal or reduction

    Emission reduction or avoidance

    Prevents or reduces emissions — fits contribution claims, not SBTi neutralisation.

  • Paris Agreement (Article 6)

    No Article 6 authorization

    No corresponding adjustment: the host country can also count this reduction towards its own target.

Information only, from public sources. Claim rules (CORSIA, SBTi, EU rules on green claims) change: check them before making a public claim. Since 27 September 2026, EU consumer rules do not allow “climate neutral” product claims based on offsets.
