Audit Analysis
This Gold Standard cookstove project in Honduras presents a combined additionality test and a quantified (0%) leakage deduction, but the available record consists solely of two PDDs with no verification reports, no monitoring data, and no identified VVB. The absence of independent verification, a buffer pool, and confirmed permanence safeguards leaves significant evidence gaps that limit confidence in the project's integrity and transparency.
Red Flags
- No verification report, monitoring report, or VVB identification found in the available record — all independent verification evidence is absent
- Crediting period contradiction: the 2015 PDD states a 7-year period (2015–2022) while the 2021 PDD states a 28-year period (2012–2040), a discrepancy of over 20 years that is unexplained
- VVB verification of the additionality test is not confirmed in any available document
