About this project

The objective of this programme is to boost the use of renewable energy (solar PV) by domestic consumers and private companies of the South Africa. Participation in this programme enables the solar electrical system owners to discount the purchased price of the solar electrical system or get an annual income in the form of rebate in exchange for cession of their rights to claim greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions to the coordinating entity of this PoA . The owners of large installation are also given an option to sell carbon credits generated to an independent buyer. The coordinating entity of this PoA is Blue World Carbon Asset Management (Pty) Ltd (BWC).
