 The '''Project Design Document (PDD)''' is the central document in a CDM project. The PDD describes the technology used in the project activity, the relevant project participants and project location(s). It defines the methodology used to calculate emission reductions, including the baseline, project boundary´, leakages and monitoring plan. The life time of the CDM-project can be a fixed crediting period of ten years or a flexible crediting period of seven years which can, if desired, be renewed twice. It has to be validated by an independent operational entity ('''Designated Operational Entity (DOE)''') and is then submitted to the CDM-Executive Board for registration. The PDD is the key document that the host country, investors, stakeholders and DOEs will use to evaluate the project’s potential, and to judge its achievements - it's preparation follows UNFCCC requirements .

 Consider the case of an improved cooking stove that saves fuel and therewith CO<sub>2</sub> emissions compared to the existing baseline technology. The methodology assumes that in the absence of the project activity, a fossil fuel (kerosene, liquefied petroleum gas, etc.) would be used to satisfy local demand for cooking energy. Hence baseline emissions are calculated on the basis of the CO<sub>2</sub> emission factors of the fossil fuel that is most likely to be used to replace non-renewable biomass for cooking purposes in the project area. According to this formula the fraction of the total annual biomass savings originating from non-renewable resources is determined and multiplied by the net calorific value of the biomass actually used and the emission factor of the fossil fuel that would most likely be used in the project area in the absence of the project activity. The projected emission reductions will therefore be based on a fossil fuel scenario. Annual biomass savings in tonnes are calculated by multiplying annual biomass consumption in the baseline by the efficiency improvement of the new technology in comparison to the old stove (or three-stone fire).

 As compared to traditional stoves, improved cookstoves generate less emissions and this reduced emissions is calculated as the '''''product of the amount of woody biomass saved, the fraction that is considered non-renewable biomass, the net calorific value of the biomass, and an emission factor for the fuel used'''''<ref name="https://www.sei-international.org/mediamanager/documents/Publications/Climate/sei-pb-2013-cdm-cookstoves.pdf">https://www.sei-international.org/mediamanager/documents/Publications/Climate/sei-pb-2013-cdm-cookstoves.pdf</ref>. The reduced emissions can further be converted into carbon credits and sold under international programs such as '''[[Clean Development Mechanism (CDM)|Clean Development Mechanism (CDM)]] '''of the Kyoto Protocol (Kyoto Protocol), the '''Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM)''', the '''Gold Standard''' or the American Carbon Registry (ACR). The revenue generated by selling the carbon credits (carbon finance) is then used to finance the cookstove projects.
 In December 2007, stove projects were accepted under the '''Clean Development Mechanism (CDM)''' of the Kyoto Protocol.
