The project developer monitors the parameters required by the methodology used to calculate the emission reduction/removals, the indicators from the SDG’s included in the PDD, and confirms that it's delivering the expected outcomes through verification obtained from IVVB. The verification of the project is conducted by an Independent Validation and Verification Body (IVVB), accredited by the RED Carbon Standard, who will complete the Verification Report Template.
