Buyer’s Guide to High-Quality Cookstove Carbon Credits
The Buyer’s Guide to High-Quality Cookstove Carbon Credits aims to bring greater clarity and integrity to the cookstove carbon credit market by equipping corporate buyers with the tools and insights they need to support high-quality projects that deliver climate impact.
The Buyer’s Guide provides a practical roadmap for companies and investors seeking to purchase carbon credits that meet the highest standards of environmental integrity and social responsibility. The result of extensive collaboration with technical experts, project developers, investors, and carbon market leaders, the Buyer’s Guide is a direct outcome of last year’s Summit on Clean Cooking in Africa, which established a Clean Cooking Carbon Credit Task Force with CCA, the International Energy Agency, Gold Standard, and International Emissions Trading Association (IETA), along with 45 other organizations. Other contributors to the guide include Abatable, AlliedOffsets, BURN, Climate Impact Partners, Climate Impact X, FairClimateFund, Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), Spark+ Africa Fund, the Voluntary Carbon Markets Integrity Initiative, and Verra. The guide builds upon the Principles for Responsible Carbon Finance in Clean Cooking, a framework endorsed by over 180 organizations worldwide.
