Audit Analysis
A Gold Standard domestic energy-efficiency (cooking stove) project in Uganda with VVB-confirmed additionality and a full safeguards package, but undermined by a 0% leakage deduction labelled 'quantified,' an unresolved ~11% discrepancy in the lifetime ERR within the same appendix, and one open corrective action request. The project is CORSIA-eligible and monitored via annual surveys, yet no verified ERR figure was found in the extracted record, limiting independent cross-checking.
Red Flags
- Lifetime ERR appears as two different values (1,425,246 tCO₂e vs 1,577,885 tCO₂e) in the same appendix dated 2022-12-06, a ~10.7% internal inconsistency that was never reconciled in the verification report.
- Leakage deduction is 0% with a justification described only as 'quantified'—no methodology, boundary, or calculation is provided in the extracted record, making the zero deduction unverifiable.
- One Corrective Action Request (CAR) and five Clarification Requests remain open per the verification report (2025-03-25), indicating unresolved verification issues.
