Audit Analysis
The Global Cookstove Program (Phase 25) is a VCS-registered cookstove project in India with VVB-confirmed additionality and a quantified 5% leakage deduction, but it suffers from a project-specific baseline, no buffer pool, no monitoring data yet available, and multiple corrective actions raised during validation. The low extraction confidence and absence of any verification report limit the ability to assess real-world performance.
Red Flags
- Four corrective actions (CARs) were required during validation, including unsupported biomass consumption values and an outdated fNRB calculation tool version
- No buffer pool percentage is stated in any available document, leaving permanence risk unquantified
- No monitoring report or verified ERR figure is available, making it impossible to assess actual delivery against the 48,690 tCO₂e lifetime claim
- Minimum extraction confidence is rated 'low', indicating at least one key document was poorly readable or incomplete
Credit Vintages
No issuances recorded on the registry.
