GS2506 Improved Cooking Stoves Programme in Côte d'Ivoire - VPA001
Gold Standard · GS2505 · Côte d'Ivoire
About this project
The proposed Gold Standard SSC-VPA “GSXXXX Improved Cooking Stoves Programme in Côte d’Ivoire - VPA001", hereafter referred to as “VPA001" will be carried out within the urban area of Abidjan city, the economic capital of Côte d’Ivoire, where households mainly rely on woodfuel for cooking purposes with inefficient devices. Indeed an average of 6.00 tons of equivalent woody biomass per household is currently consumed each year for cooking purposes. The promotion and dissemination of maximum 10,643 affordable and efficient improved cookstoves (ICS) to low income Ivorian’s households and the associated awareness and training campaigns will help Ivorian’s households by replacing currently used low efficiency three stone fires and traditional cook stoves , thus reducing Greenhouse Gas emissions by 39,490 tCO2/yr.
