Main project features:
The main objective of this assignment is the evaluation of various options how international carbon markets can support the acceleration of e-mobility in rural Western Kenya, and to provide clear and pragmatic recommendations how to optimally approach and benefit from carbon offsetting schemes.The outcomes of the study will support light electric mobility technologies like e-cargo bikes, e-bikes and e-outboard engines to develop sustainable business models and, in turn, enhance productivity within the target groups: women, farmers, fishermen and traders.
Project Overview
Perspectives carried out the following tasks:- Development of a blueprint for carbon credit generation of e-mobility applications including an assessment of the e-mobility technologies’ emission reduction potential and a systematic evluation of opportunities and barriers for credit generation of the technology applications;- Organisation of a strategy workshop for carbon credit generation with e-mobility technology providers in which the blueprint will be presented and discussed;- Conducting a detailed feasibility study about CO2 emission reductions by technology/commercial partners and development of a concept for a Program of Activity (PoA)
