Analysis

A VCS cookstove project (VM0050) in Tanzania with VVB-confirmed additionality, a quantified 5% leakage deduction, and no reversal events, but undermined by 13 cross-document contradictions—including a significant FNRB discrepancy (0.91 in the verification report vs 0.6734 in the issuance document) and conflicting additionality test types. The project delivered only ~44% of its pro-rata lifetime expectation for the monitored year, which is conservative but raises baseline-accuracy questions. Documentation is extensive (65 documents) yet internally inconsistent, and the buffer pool status is not stated in any available record.

Eligibility & market

What can you claim with this credit?

Four checks buyers ask about, from the registry and the Integrity Council (ICVCM).

  • Airlines (CORSIA)

    First phase label on the registry (2024–2026)

    The registry labels credits of this project eligible for the first phase. Only units of 2021–2026 vintages that carry the label count for airlines' CORSIA obligations: check the units, not only the project.

    Every issued vintage (2022–2024) is inside the First Phase window (2021–2026): check that the units offered carry the label.

    Covers: credits of this project that carry the label on the registry — not every unit or lot

  • Integrity label (ICVCM CCP)

    No ICVCM information

    No CCP label and no ICVCM decision found for this project's methodology.

  • Removal or reduction

    Emission reduction or avoidance

    Prevents or reduces emissions — fits contribution claims, not SBTi neutralisation.

    Covers: the project type, not a label on individual credits

  • Paris Agreement (Article 6)

    Authorized by the host countryIntl mitigation purposes · NDC Use · Other purposes

    The registry shows a host-country authorization for credits of this project, with a corresponding adjustment for the authorized uses: check that the units offered are among them.

Being within an ICVCM-approved version range is information only: it does not mean these credits carry the CCP label, which the registry assigns to each issuance.

A version is shown only when the document's own text writes it next to the methodology code. Current versions, status and CCP ranges come from the official pages linked, checked on the date shown.
