CPA-KE-008 KISUMU
Gold Standard · GS7504 · Kenya
About this project
The purpose of this CPA is to distribute ethanol stoves that will lead to a reduction in the demand for wood and charcoal and to contribute towards sustainable development. The CPA is a voluntary action with a goal of providing solutions that will reduce GHG emissions, and other negative effects associated with the use of non-renewable fuel from cooking at household levels. The use of non-renewable fuel such as wood and charcoal for cooking leads to the emission of greenhouses gases, deforestation, and poor indoor climate. This will be achieved by providing highly efficient ethanol stoves that are using renewable fuel (denatured alcohol) within the project boundary. The CPA is registered with the UNFCCC as CPA 0034, under the PoA reference number 7359. The title of this CPA is CPA-KE-008 KISUMU 7359-0034. The CPA implementer will be Green Development AS, and will be implemented within Kisumu County in Kenya.
