Can carbon revenues help transform household energy markets? A scoping study with cookstove programmes in India and Kenya, 2014.

Authors, Fiona Lambe, et al. Stockholm Environment Institute.

Little research has been done on how cookstove projects are using carbon finance. In order to address this gap, we conducted an in-depth review of the project design documents (PDDs) for 75 carbon-financed cookstove projects in India and Kenya. We also interviewed 49 stakeholders along the value chain, including cookstove project implementers (both carbon-financed and not), households, NGOs and cookstove and carbon market experts. A consensus is emerging among policy-makers and donors that a market-based approach is needed to scale up cookstove initiatives and ensure their long-term sustainability.
