MicroEnergy Credits – Microfinance for Clean Energy Product Lines – Africa – Solar Lamps & Efficient cook stoves – 10341 –CPA - 0003 (VCS-2837) is being re-assessed under the current CarbonMeld methodology (v3): its earlier rating came from an older version of the method and is no longer shown, so this page gives no CarbonMeld rating until the new analysis is published.
Assessment
Being reassessed under the current method
The earlier analysis of this project used an older version of our method, so its rating is no longer shown: it is not comparable with ratings under the current method (v3). The new analysis will appear here once it is published; until then, this page shows the project's registry data.
Standard and methodology
- Methodology
- AMS II.G: Energy efficiency measures in thermal applications of non- renewable biomass, v8.0. AMS III.AR: Substituting fossil fuel-based lighting with LED/CFL lighting systems, v5.0. No methodology-specific rules: the general rules apply. Read the general rules
