IMPROVED COOK STOVE PROGRAMME IN FIJI – CPA01
#113of 150 in Cookstoves#1002of 1339 in Verra (VCS)#142of 189 in AMS-II.G
Audit Analysis
A registered VCS cookstove project in Fiji with confirmed additionality and a quantified 5% leakage deduction, but undermined by Verra-identified issues with the baseline scenario and emission-reduction estimation, a still-pending corrective action, and a notable absence of independent performance-monitoring data. The identical claimed and verified ERR figures (17,533 tCO₂e) suggest the 'verified' number is the ex-ante estimate rather than field-measured performance, limiting confidence in actual delivery.
Red Flags
- Verra identified issues with the baseline scenario and with the correct estimation of emission reductions during Section 6 review; a written response from the VVB is still pending
- Total ERR claimed and verified are identical (17,533 tCO₂e), indicating no independent field-measured performance data has been verified against the ex-ante estimate
- Four Corrective Action Requests were raised during validation (though subsequently closed), signalling material documentation or methodology weaknesses
- Low extraction confidence across the document set, combined with contradictions in leakage figures (5% vs 0%) and crediting-period dates, reduces data reliability
