Analyst briefing
Activities & scale The project covers 1,100 ha of degraded mangrove ecosystem across Aceh and North Sumatra provinces, registered on the Verra pipeline as ID 5545 under methodology VM0033 1. The crediting period is 2 Mar 2022 to 1 Mar 2062 (40 years), with estimated annual emission reductions of 38,870 tCO2e — consistent with the broader partnership framing of roughly 5.6 million tCO2e sequestered over 2021-2041 across YAKOPI's joint pipeline. Activities include planting six native mangrove species, rehabilitating areas damaged by shrimp/fish aquaculture conversion and the 2004 tsunami, plus coastal vegetation and upland agroforestry for tsunami mitigation 4. A parallel VNV-supported 'Ibu Bakau' mangrove afforestation project (Gold Standard GS23213) is advancing on overlapping Sumatran geographies 5.
