Sustainable Brick Production in Malawi - VPA 1
Gold Standard · GS12826 · Malawi
About this project
The project activity promotes the installation and operation of energy-efficient Vertical Shaft Brick Kilns (VSBKs) by Malawian entrepreneurs for the production of high-quality bricks. Through better thermal insulation during the firing process and the use of sustainable biomass fuels, the activity will lead to a reduction in CO2 emissions, contribute to innovation in the Malawian brick production sector, combat deforestation and create job opportunities.
