Analysis

A Gold Standard improved cookstove project in Nigeria with VVB-confirmed additionality and no reversal events, but undermined by a project-specific baseline, absence of a buffer pool, a 0% leakage deduction, and a large volume of material findings and corrective actions (29 combined) that signal ongoing documentation and parameter-stability issues. The VVB's verification of exactly the claimed 116,093 tCO₂e for the 2024 monitoring period is reassuring, yet the monitoring report's own figure of 302,731 and the permanent fNRB reduction from 0.91 to 0.38 raise questions about the robustness of the original ex-ante estimates.
