Audit Analysis

A VCS cookstove project in Ghana with a VVB-confirmed additionality test, a 5% leakage deduction, and no material findings, but weakened by a project-specific baseline, an unquantified buffer pool, 11 corrective action requests during verification, and several cross-document contradictions on FNRB method and additionality test type. The monitoring-period ERR of 501,413 represents roughly 95% of the pro-rata expectation from the PDD lifetime estimate, indicating reasonable but not exceptional delivery.

Red Flags

  • 11 Corrective Action Requests were raised during Validation & Verification, indicating recurring documentation or methodological issues that required resolution
  • FNRB method is contradictory across documents: the verification report (2023) describes it as 'calculated' while the monitoring report (2025) labels it a 'national default', creating uncertainty about the robustness of the 0.8197 value
  • CORSIA eligibility and CCP status are both unstated, leaving dual-channel or double-claiming risk unassessed
