Analysis

A CDM waste-heat-recovery project at Bayi Steel using the standard ACM0012 methodology, with additionality confirmed by DNV via a combined test. The first monitoring period delivered roughly 56% of the pro-rata ex-ante expectation, and several monitoring-plan corrections were required, but the underlying technology and baseline logic are sound. Key transparency gaps remain around FNRB, usage-rate verification, and the absence of a verified ERR figure in the available documents.
