Analysis

This Gold Standard PoA for rural biogas in Sichuan has a confirmed additionality assessment and a recent baseline reassessment, but is severely undermined by an extraordinary volume of material findings (over 80 items) and corrective actions (over 60 items), including fundamental calculation errors such as duplicate uncertainty factors and incorrect baseline and project emission calculations. Multiple contradictions across documents—particularly in ERR figures, leakage treatment, and baseline characterisation—raise serious data-reliability concerns that cannot be resolved from the available record.

Eligibility & market

What can you claim with this credit?

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

  • Airlines (CORSIA)

  • Integrity label (ICVCM CCP)

    Methodology not approved by ICVCMAMS-I.I

    The Integrity Council assessed this methodology as not meeting the Core Carbon Principles.

  • Removal or reduction

    Emission reduction or avoidance

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

  • Paris Agreement (Article 6)

    Not published

    This registry does not publish Article 6 authorizations.

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.
