Enugu Clean Cookstove Carbon Project

Sustainable Development Goals

Description

The Enugu Clean Cookstove Carbon Project aims to deploy 15,000 Powerstove T100 units (58.9% thermal efficiency) to replace traditional three-stone fires, reducing deforestation, greenhouse gas emissions, and health risks. Funded by NASENI and Powerstove Energy, the project leverages carbon finance under the Tyndall Carbon Standard (aligned with AMS-II.G).

Tyndall Carbon Standard Advantage

Tyndall Carbon Standard (TCS) revolutionizes carbon credit accessibility with five key advantages:

  • Affordability: Cuts certification costs by 70% vs. traditional standards via blockchain automation.
  • Real-Time Accuracy: IoT sensors + AI track emissions 24/7, reducing audit disputes by 90%.
  • Inclusivity: Designed for small African projects (50–5,000 tCO₂/year).
  • Liquidity: Peer-to-peer trading via smart contracts, reducing broker fees from 30% to 5%.
  • Transparency: Blockchain prevents double-counting and ensures verified impact.

Impact: TCS empowers marginalized communities and democratizes carbon markets.

Digital MRV (dMRV)

dMRV automates the monitoring, reporting, and verification of climate action impacts using digital tools.

  • Measurement: IoT sensors, satellite imagery, and remote sensing for real-time data.
  • Reporting: Cloud-based automation with dashboards for stakeholders.
  • Verification: AI and blockchain ensure data integrity and prevent fraud.
  • Applications: Used in carbon credit projects, policy compliance, and decentralized solutions.
  • Technologies: IoT, AI/ML, blockchain.

Example: Powerstove monitors 500,000+ IoT stoves, automating credit issuance via Tyndall Standard.
