GS5304 MKOPA Solar Lighting Programme of Activities - Kenya VPA 6 by Natural Capital Partners by Natural Capital Partners
Gold Standard · GS7732 · Kenya
About this project
The MKOPA Solar Lighting Programme of Activities (the PoA) aims to distribute solar lighting systems to households throughout Africa. The use of the solar lighting systems will enable households to switch from high-cost kerosene to affordable, safe, off-grid renewable solar power. The utilization of the systems will reduce the amount of fossil fuel-based domestic energy needs, which will contribute to a reduction in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
