Audit Analysis
A Gold Standard cookstove project in Malawi with VVB-confirmed additionality, a quantified 5% leakage deduction, and verified emissions reductions closely matching claims (99.6% delivery). However, the absence of a buffer pool, a project-specific baseline without a stated reassessment date, and multiple administrative corrective actions temper the overall quality. The project is operationally sound but carries moderate structural risks around permanence and baseline robustness.
Red Flags
- Baseline last reassessed date not found in any document; project-specific baseline method without documented reassessment cadence
- Six contradictions across documents (leakage treatment, ERR figures, usage rate, additionality test type, monitoring method, crediting period) indicate inconsistent record-keeping
- CORSIA eligibility and CCP status both not stated, leaving dual-channel risk unaddressed
