GS12891 High Impact Cookstoves in Rural Mali VPA01
Gold Standard · GS12892 · Mali
About this project
The goal of the proposed Programme of Activities (PoA) is to disseminate Improved Cookstoves (ICS) to rural households in Mali. The project ICS are high efficiency biomass cookstoves that reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and particulate matter (PM), thus improving indoor air quality in project households as well as many other benefits. Due to the higher thermal efficiency of the ICS relative to the traditional baseline stoves, the ICS reduces the amount of non-renewable biomass fuel required for meeting similar thermal energy needs. In the absence of the PoA, inefficient traditional 3-stone fires would continue to be used which is the dominant firewood end-use system in Mali. The project ICS will replace the low efficiency 3-stone fires and emission reductions are achieved through improving household energy efficiency and a reduction in the consumption of non-renewable biomass.
