Analysis

This VCS cookstove project in Mozambique has a confirmed combined additionality test and a quantified 5% leakage deduction, but the verification report raises 12 material findings — most critically that the 91.2% operational cookstove rate is 'likely unrealistic' and the sampling methodology behind it is insufficiently documented. The project delivered only about 4.5% of the pro-rata ex-ante expectation for the elapsed monitoring period, and no buffer pool is stated, leaving permanence and MRV robustness as significant concerns.
