Gold Standard · GS11531 · Uganda
About this project
The CPA is located in the Republic of Uganda and involves distribution of efficient biomass fired Improved Cookstoves (ICS). The project ICS replace the low efficiency, traditional biomass fired stoves, used for meeting similar thermal energy needs in the baseline. The CPA is included under CDM PoA-9956 with reference number 9956-P1-0042-CP1.
