Analysis

The Soprema biobased insulation expansion project in Gironde is a Rainbow-standard avoidance credit for construction-sector cellulose wadding, verified by RSM France with no material findings. The verified emissions reduction of 16,368 tCO₂e for 2023 is consistent with the claimed figure and represents roughly 91% of the pro-rata expectation from the 54,180 tCO₂e lifetime estimate, indicating reasonable delivery. However, several key parameters—additionality verification by the VVB, feedstock sustainability, FNRB methodology, and detailed leakage justification—are not stated in the available documents, limiting confidence in the robustness of the underlying assumptions.
