About this project

The PoA GS 973 – ILF CPA 1 GS 2518 is the first small-scale CPAs that was registered with the ICSEA PoA GS 973. The project is CDM and Gold Standard accredited. The CPA is part of CDM Sectoral Scope 3: Energy demand, AMS-II.G version 3, “Energy Efficiency Measures in Thermal Applications of Non Renewable Biomass".ILF CPA 1 GS 2518 produces, markets, distributes, tracks and maintains portable/fixed, domestic/institutional improved cook stoves (ICS), using charcoal/firewood fuels.This CPA is disseminating ICS throughout Uganda. The primary means to uniquely identify the activities under the CPA is by means of buyer information collected through Sales Agreements. This includes stove serial number, customer name, address, date of sale, and where practical and appropriate also GPS coordinates.The overall objective of ILF CPA 1 is to contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through the dissemination of ICS as a local, sustainable energy source and the development of a commercially viable, market-oriented ICS sector.
