Dear Stakeholder, 

BURN Manufacturing Co. (BURN) is one of Africa’s largest cookstove companies and carbon offset project developers. Based in Kenya, BURN operates carbon projects in nine countries across Africa, distributing high-quality, highly efficient wood and charcoal improved cookstoves. 

In addition to our existing biomass projects, BURN’s subsidiary, ECOA Climate Capital (“ECC”) is now developing a carbon Programme of Activities (PoA), using Gold Standard’s Metered and Measured Energy Cooking Devices Methodology. This project will be called “ECC_Multi-country Electric Clean Cooking Programme.” 

The PoA will span several African countries (for the list of countries, please see attached Non-Technical Summary) and may be extended to other countries later. The objective of the PoA is to deploy metered & electric cooking devices, reducing and or substituting the use woody biomass consumption for households, institutions and Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). 

We are interested in receiving your comments on the programme design at this early stage of PoA implementation so that we can further improve the programme design. Please find attached to this invitation the Non-Technical Summary of the PoA and Consultation Invite (in English NTS, Portuguese, French, Swahili and Somali) upon which we invite you to give your feedback. 

You are invited to fill and send back the attached feedback form by 25th June 2023 latest to allow us to take into account your suggestions.
