About this activity

Mwanza Valley Clean Cooking Programme deploys metered high-efficiency biomass cookstoves with a district service network across Mwanza, reaching an estimated 46,000 households by the end of the crediting period. The activity replaces the prevailing baseline practice with a metered, serviceable alternative and is expected to deliver approximately 34,500 tCO2e of verified reductions per year. Implementation is led by Nkhoma Clean Energy Limited under a delivery agreement with district authorities in Mwanza.
