Analysis

This Gold Standard cook-stove project in Maputo, Mozambique has a VVB-verified additionality assessment and recent monitoring (2023–2024), but is undermined by an extensive list of unresolved material findings covering baseline values, usage-rate calculation, and double-counting risk. Multiple contradictions between the 2016 verification report and the 2023 PDD on leakage, FNRB method, and usage assumptions reduce confidence in the data. The verified ERs (14,198 tCO₂e) are below the claimed figure (16,761 tCO₂e), which is conservative, but the 79% verified usage rate falls well short of the 90% assumed in the current PDD.
