Tiivistelmä
There has been an increase of carbon finance in recent years to offset projects in developing countries that claim to produce significant local development benefits, also called co-benefits. Household energy technology projects are an example of carbon offset projects that are claimed to both mitigate climate change and create development co-benefits. This report uses case studies from household energy technology projects in Cambodia and Lao PDR to examine how the co-benefits of household energy technology carbon offset projects are assessed and what possible gaps there are in current academic assessment approaches.
The research for this book has been carried out under the ‘Scaling up low carbon household technologies in the lower Mekong Subregion’. The project commenced in 2012 and has been funded by the Nordic Climate Facility (NCF), which is financed by the Nordic Development Fund (NDF) and administrated by Nordic Environment Finance Corporation (NEFCO).
