Analysis

The Central Mozambique Safe Water Programme is a Gold Standard avoidance project displacing thermal energy for water heating, with confirmed additionality and a recent baseline reassessment. However, a significant over-issuance of 30,370 tCO2e in the first monitoring period, ongoing non-compliance with methodology monitoring requirements, and numerous data-quality corrections across borehole counts, SDG calculations, and ER/MR consistency substantially undermine confidence in the project's integrity and claim safety.
