Audit Analysis

A VCS cookstove distribution project in India with VVB-confirmed additionality, quantified 5% leakage deduction, and no reversal events. The project delivered approximately 97.6% of its pro-rata ex-ante expectation over the first monitoring period, though material findings revealed a rising non-usage rate (0% to 4.74%) and up to 521 unaccounted stoves in the third survey. All verification findings were closed, but the project-specific baseline and unverified usage rates leave moderate residual risk.

Red Flags

  • 521 cookstoves (4.74%) unaccounted for in the third survey, indicating a monitoring gap in the installed base
  • Non-usage rate of cookstoves increased from 0% to 4.74% over the monitoring period, suggesting potential over-crediting on stoves no longer in active use
  • Project-specific baseline with no stated reassessment date in available documents
  • Usage rate assumed and verified values are not stated in the extracted record, limiting ability to confirm actual stove utilisation
