About this project

Small-scale CDM programme activities (SSC-CPAs) under the Sustainability CFL Replacement Programme of Activities (PoA) will be implemented by Energy Service Companies (ESCOs) under the direction of Eskom Holdings Limited, whom will act as the Coordinating/Managing Entity (CME). The objective of the SSC-CPAs are to boost the energy efficiency of South Africa’s residential lighting stock by distributing Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs) free of charge to households across South Africa. The SSC-CPA aims to provide between 800,000 to 1,000,000 CFLs free of charge to households via direct installation (of all possible CFLs in the household) or by exchange of incandescent lamps (ICLs) and old CFLs, from previous Eskom campaigns, with up to 6 CFLs at designated exchange points. The exact number of bulbs distributed under this SSC-CPA will be documented in a data management system and provided to the DOE. As such, the projects will abate greenhouse gas emissions, s
