Analysis

The Kattepura Mini Hydel Scheme is a standard grid-connected hydro project under CDM using the AMS-I.D methodology, with a jurisdictional baseline and VVB-confirmed investment additionality. However, the validation report identified 14 material findings, ten of which directly challenge the financial analysis underpinning the additionality claim (CER pricing, sensitivity analysis, O&M costs, PLF inconsistency, and implementation-period assumptions). The project delivered only about 36% of the pro-rata ex-ante expectation for the elapsed monitoring period, which is conservative but raises questions about the accuracy of the original ex-ante estimate.
