The record

Edition 0.1: the complete record.

The register's whole coverage to date, in one place: the California compliance table, the Australian scheme at event level, and the voluntary market as exposures, with an independent second source reconciled against California. Edition 0.1 contains edition zero and adds to it. The discipline is unchanged: every figure travels with its source and its licence, it stays undated where the source carries no date, and the absences are stated in the body.

What Australia adds

the register books each project's cumulative relinquished total; the CER holds no per-notice date column, so dates come from the register's dated Notes prose

258,848 ACCUs

relinquished across 21 projects, 234,106 Kyoto units and 24,742 non-Kyoto units, summed from the CER register csv. 20 of the 21 reconcile their Notes quantities to the booked total exactly; Milhouse (ERF111315, 56 units) carries no relinquishment paragraph and its date is not stated.

These are exposures: the database names the project and the quantity it records as reversed, withdrawn or rejected, and never a date, so each carries occurred not stated. The deciding documents that would date them are being retrieved; for the four Verra projects rejected by the administrator, the documents sit under a licence that does not permit republication and their events are withheld pending that licence and a legal read, so only the database's own exposure and registry status appear here. Kariba (VCS902) alone is 5,049,473 of the total, carried as the database records it, at its buffer quantity, undated.

A second source, against the California table

27 exact · 3 differ · 0 unmatched

The same database carries 30 of California's projects

joined on the CARB identifier, each project's reversal quantity compared against the issuance workbook

Coherence is not verification. A set of figures that reconciles with itself can still fail to resolve to its source. An independent database that carries the same 30 California projects, and agrees on 27 of them to the credit, is a second reading of the record rather than a restatement of it. The three that differ are carried as disagreements, never averaged. Together they are 83,483 credits, 0.7 per cent of the 12,257,618 California-linked credits the database carries.

What is undated, and whyVROD names project and quantity but no date, so its exposures carry occurred not stated. ACCU dates are read from the register's dated Notes prose; became public is set to the mirror date because the register records no publication date of its own.

What is withheldThe Verra loss-event documents behind four voluntary VCS projects are under a licence that does not permit republication; their events are withheld pending that licence and a legal read, and only the VROD exposure and registry status appear. A German upstream-emission-reduction revocation reported in August 2026 is held as a candidate off the register until its primary decision is obtained.
