MoRe Malawi ARR Project requests pipeline listing on Verra
VM0047, Verra's restoration methodology with dynamic baselines
MoRe Malawi ARR Project in Malawi (Verra VCS 5730) requested pipeline listing on Verra. Our daily read saw it on 1 Oct 2026.
The registry status moved from “Pipeline Listing (under development) approved” to “Pipeline listing requested (under validation)”.
The registry estimates 896,410 tCO2e of reductions or removals a year.
It uses VM0047 (Afforestation, Reforestation and Revegetation). VM0047 is Verra's 2023 afforestation, reforestation and revegetation methodology. Its area-based approach sets the baseline at every verification by comparing the project with satellite-matched control plots, a dynamic baseline. The methodology is approved for the CCP label by the ICVCM and eligible for CORSIA; that is the methodology's standing, not a label on this project's credits.
The methodology is on the Symbiosis Coalition's list of eligible methodologies for its request for proposals: the buyers' group founded by Google, Meta, Microsoft and Salesforce, which pledged to contract up to 20 million tonnes of nature-based removal credits by 2030. That is about the methodology, not an offer for this project.
3 other VM0047 projects in Malawi are on Verra, none of them registered.
