GS1247 VPA 122 Zoba Anseba Community Safe Water
GS-1456 ↗ · current registry ID: GS5951
#117of 1329 in Industrial#2of 38 in Eritrea#233of 1801 in Gold Standard (GS)
Audit Analysis
A Gold Standard community safe-water project in Eritrea with a VVB-confirmed combined additionality test and a project-specific baseline reassessed in 2024. The project applies conservative caps on usage rate (95%) and per-person water consumption (7.5 L/day), and no reversal events were reported. However, the absence of a verified ERR figure, a 0% leakage deduction, and nine cross-document contradictions limit confidence in the claimed 30,528 ERR.
Red Flags
- Total ERR verified is not stated in any available document, preventing an independent check of the 30,528 claimed ERR
- Nine contradictions across documents (leakage justification, FNRB value, usage rate, crediting period, etc.) indicate inconsistent record-keeping
- Borehole ZA017 was removed due to non-functionality and multiple forward action requests remain open for the next verification cycle
- Sector classification is listed as 'industrial' despite the project being a community domestic water/energy-efficiency scheme, suggesting a registry data error
