Analysis

The Johnston County Landfill Project (CAR-880) is a landfill gas capture/combustion project with confirmed additionality and a measured baseline, but it carries a qualified (modified) verification opinion, a history of chronic MRV calibration failures, and a significant over-issuance event that resulted in the cancellation of 74,628 credits. While the project remains operational and corrective actions have been implemented, the depth of data-quality issues and the absence of stated leakage treatment and baseline reassessment timing materially weaken confidence in the integrity and safety of its claims.

  • 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.
