(yes/no) Tanzania No Applied methodologies and standardized Technologies and Practices to Displace Decentralized baselines Thermal Energy Consumption (version 2.0) Mandatory sectoral scopes linked to the Scope 1: Energy industries (renewable-/non-renewable applied methodologies sources) Scope 13: Waste handling and disposal1 Conditional sectoral scopes linked to the applied methodologies, if applicable N/A Estimated amount of GHG emission reductions or GHG removals for this 463,196 tCO2e monitoring period in the included VPAs 1 VPA-DD refers to Scope 15 Agriculture whereas the related GS webpage https://www.goldstandard.org/resources/energy-requirements 1, 3 and 13 for this methodology. Scope 3 is not applicable due the nature of the project. Also as per UNFCCC accreditation standard ver 7.0 Manure (Animal waste management) belongs to Scope 13. Version 02.0 Page 1 of 71 GS-VPA-VCR-FORM covered in this report Certified amount of GHG emission reductions or GHG removals for this monitoring period for the included VPAs 84,640 tCO2e covered in this report Name of the GS-VVB TÜV NORD CERT GmbH Name, position and signature of the Stefan Winter approver of the verification and certification report Senior Assessor Version 02.0 Page 2 of 71 GS-VPA-VCR-FORM SECTION A. Executive summary HIVOS Foundation has commissioned the TÜV NORD JI/CDM Certification Program to carry out the 2nd periodic verification of the Voluntary Project Activity: “African Biogas Carbon Programme (ABC) – Tanzania – CAMARTEC - VPA002” The VPA was registered with GS on 07/01/2016, registration GS 2751 with a crediting period from 07/01/2014 – 06/01/2021 (including both dates) according to the GS registration review. The VPA aims to reduce GHG emissions to stimulate the use of biogas systems to replace traditional thermal energy generation methods by making biogas systems affordable and available to households. This verification report covers the monitoring period from 01/01/2015 to 31/12/2018 (including both days). Details of the VPA location in table A-1 below: Table A-1: Project Location No. Project Location Host Country Tanzania Region: Arusha, Dar es Salam, Dodoma, Iringa, Kagera, Kaskazini Pemba, Kaskazini Unguja, Kilimanjaro, Kusini Pemba, Kusini Unguja, Manyara, Mara, Mbeya, Mjini Magharibi, Mjini Unguja, Morogoro, Mtwara, Mwanza, Njombe, Pwani, Rukwa, Ruvuma, Shinyanga, Simiyu, Singida, Songwe, Tanga Latitude: Approx: 1.212095 S to 11.40802 S Longitude: Approx: 31.17133 E to 37.55124 E The technology implemented in this VPA are biodigesters of fixed dome type installed underground to treat animal waste anaerobically to generate biogas for use as cooking fuel and the bioslurry as organic fertilisers for farming.

The project has generated GHG emission reductions. As the result of the 2nd periodic verification, the verifier confirms that the GHG emission reductions are calculated without material misstatements in a conservative and appropriate manner. TÜV NORD JI/CDM CP herewith confirms that the VPA has achieved emission reductions in the above mentioned reporting period as follows: Version 02.0 Page 3 of 71 GS-VPA-VCR-FORM Emission reductions: 84,640 tCO2e SECTION B.
