Analysis

This long-running Gold Standard cookstove project in Peru has VVB-verified additionality and no reversal events, but is burdened by an extensive catalogue of material findings spanning data quality, stove durability, maintenance gaps, and double-counting risks. The 0% leakage deduction, below-threshold removal rate of old stoves, and beneficiary dismantling of project stoves raise meaningful over-crediting concerns. Documentation is voluminous (37 documents) but undermined by missing annual reports, non-public prior verifications, and dozens of unresolved corrective actions.
