Audit Analysis

A Gold Standard improved-cookstove project in Tanzania with VVB-confirmed additionality, a quantified 5% leakage deduction, and no reversal events, delivering roughly 113% of its pro-rata emission-reduction expectation for the monitored period. However, a project-specific baseline, a notable fNRB value discrepancy between documents, and a large volume of material findings and corrective actions temper confidence in the underlying data quality.

Red Flags

  • fNRB value discrepancy: the verification report (Aug 2025) records 0.8635 while the validation report (Aug 2025) records 0.64 — a 35% gap that materially affects emission-factor calculations
  • 24 corrective actions were raised across validation and verification, including unresolved questions on stove lifetime justification, LPG co-use in baseline households, and double-counting prevention
  • CORSIA eligibility and CCP status are not stated in any available document, leaving dual-channel risk unassessed
