GS1183 Kenya Improved woodstoves POA
Gold Standard · GS1183 · Kenya
About this project
The purpose of this small-scale Programme of Activities (PoA) is distributing KONSAVA efficient cookstoves to rural households in the Republic of Kenya. The efficient fuel wood stove that will be deployed is a portable stove made of iron steel manufactured in Kenya by local entities. The improved stoves are more fuel efficient compared to the open fire method of cooking that is widely experienced in Kenya (three-stone cooking stoves). By reducing fuel consumption, the PoA reduces greenhouse gas emissions from the use of non- renewable biomass. The Coordinating and Managing Entity (CME) of the PoA is EcoAct, a company incorporated in France. ClimatePal, a Joint Venture between EcoAct and Carbon Manna Africa is a company incorporated in Kenya. ClimatePal is the Program manager of the PoA and will be responsible to supervise each CPA implementer as well as to coordinate production, assembly, distribution and monitoring of the stoves in each CPA under the PoA.
