Analysis

The DelAgua Clean Cooking project in Sierra Leone is a registered VCS cookstove project with a solid additionality assessment (combined test, VVB-verified) and no material findings or reversal events. However, the project-specific baseline, an inconsistent leakage justification across verification reports, and CORSIA eligibility without a stated CCP status introduce moderate claim-safety and integrity concerns. Documentation is reasonably complete with 35 source documents and multiple verification cycles.
