Analysis

A CDM biogas-from-swine-farms project in Sonora, Mexico, with VVB-verified additionality and quantified leakage, but undermined by a project-specific modeled baseline anchored to a 1990 grid emission factor, 20 corrective action requests during validation, and multiple farm removals. The project delivered roughly 42% of its pro-rata ex-ante expectation for the elapsed monitoring period, indicating conservative crediting. Key transparency gaps include the absence of a verified ERR figure, FNRB methodology, and usage-rate data in the available documents.
