High-Integrity Cookstove Credits That Strengthen Communities in Togo
If you’re a business that takes climate responsibility seriously, you’ll already be working to reduce emissions.
You may now be thinking about how to use carbon credits - and wanting to be confident that any investment supports a credible project that reduces emissions while strengthening local communities
Why organisations choose Carbon Kind cookstove credits
CCP-labelled and Gold Standard certified
These credits meet the highest integrity benchmarks currently available. Each tonne represents verified emissions reductions, aligned with best-practice guidance on responsible use alongside emissions reductions.
Designed around everyday life
Cooking is a daily necessity. By focusing on cleaner, more efficient stoves that fit familiar practices, the project delivers measurable climate impact alongside real benefits for women and families.
Designed to prioritise long-term impact
This is a deliberately managed project. Credits are issued in limited volumes, monitored closely, and allocated through direct conversations to ensure quality, credibility, and responsible use.
For organisations that need to review the project in more detail, our short white paper explains the data, standards, and safeguards behind the credits.
What makes this project different
Community-led delivery
Stoves are locally manufactured, distributed, and maintained by teams in Togo. Women spend less time collecting firewood, households save money, and communities gain healthier homes.
Measured, transparent, verifiable
Monitoring includes household surveys, usage checks, GPS verification, and ongoing data collection. Every credit is backed by evidence that stands up to scrutiny.
Built for long-term use
The project focuses on durability, repair, and local capacity - so benefits last beyond the crediting period.
Impact you can communicate with confidence
We provide story-led content created with the communities this project supports - designed to help you communicate climate action honestly and clearly.
Photography and short videos from the field
Real stories from women and families
Quotes and insights in English and French
Ready-to-use assets for websites, ESG reports, and internal communications
This isn’t generic impact reporting. It’s grounded, human storytelling that reflects what’s really happening.
“Now we breathe clean air while cooking — it’s better for our health and our children.”
- Bénédicte, Togo
“The smoke got in our eyes when we were cooking and in the evening and when we wanted to sleep our eyes were often sore”
- Adjo Adovon, Togo
How the Project Works
Locally made
Every stove is manufactured in Togo, creating skilled jobs, strengthening the local economy, and ensuring the project remains sustainable long term.
Community distributed
Trained field teams deliver stoves directly to households, provide demonstrations, and make sure families feel confident using them from day one.
Designed with communities
Women, community leaders, and local partners shape every step - from stove design and feedback cycles to distribution and long-term support. This ensures the project reflects real needs and delivers meaningful benefits.
In addition to helping offset emissions, your purchase supports 8 verified Sustainable Development Goals

Who these credits are for
If you’re already working to reduce emissions, the next question is often how to take responsibility for what remains - and how to do that in a way that genuinely makes a difference.
This project is designed for organisations that want confidence that their climate action is high-quality, well-governed, and meaningfully benefits communities beyond their value chain.
Your next step:
If the approach you’ve seen here feels aligned, the next step is simply a conversation.
Because supply is limited and we work in partnership, we speak directly with every organisation before allocating credits. This helps ensure clarity on fit, responsible use, and confidence on both sides.
