CDM-KE-011 Kenya EcoEye Mombasa Project

The project provides ethanol stoves to poor households as a clean and efficient alternative to using wood and charcoal for cooking. The ethanol stove has a thermal efficiency of 65% and use only clean and renewable ethanol cooking fuel. The ethanol is denatured and colored in accordance with Kenyan law for ethanol cooking fuel The ethanol used is a by-product from sugar factories. Sugar factories ethanol from molasses, which is a by-product from sugar production. Part of the ethanol is of sub-standard quality and this ethanol is then used as cooking fuel. Approximately 10 % of the ethanol produced by the sugar factories is of sub-standard quality and not suitable for human consumption. These 10% of the ethanol produced in Kenya is sufficient for the ethanol cookstove projects as part of our PoA in Kenya. The project is fully funded by EcoEye Co.Ltd. EcoEye also buy the carbon Credits. The project is primary implemented in Mombasa but include all of Kenya. Some households might move to other part of Kenya during the lifetime of the project. The project was registered as a CDM CPA as part of the CDM PoA. The project is transferred to Gold Standard as a VPA. Green Deve
