How it works
Emissions avoided by displacing coal used for cooking and boiling water.
The cookers use solar energy for cooking and boiling water, replacing the coal expected under the baseline scenario. The reductions are therefore avoided emissions, not removals.
Method and standard. VCS, derived from CDM project 5106; full methodology in the Project Description
