GS936 Clean Cook Stoves in Sub-Saharan Africa by ClimateCare Limited
Gold Standard · GS936 · Uganda
About this project
The Efficient Kitchen Practices Program disseminates efficient cook-stoves and safe water technologies to homes and commercial/ institutional premises, together with other efficient kitchen technologies as encompassed within the Gold Standard methodology for “Improved Cook-stoves and Kitchen Regimes". It will also disseminate non-carbon fuels and other carbon-efficient energy technologies and practices. The program will operate in several countries in Africa, and will generate Voluntary Verified Emission Reductions (VERs) from a series of “Program Activities" (PAs). The Co-ordinating and Management Entity (CME) is ClimateCare. The emission reductions will be mainly derived from avoidance of combustion of non-renewable charcoal and wood-fuel, as used for water purification (by boiling) as well as for cooking. In this way the project reduces both green house gas emissions and smoke-related and water-related disease, also reducing the rate of deforestation.
