Not all carbon credits are equal and not all clean cookstove programmes are equal. We believe that our unique approach, which has integrity at its heart, has greater impact and does more good. Live Well is transforming the health and wellbeing of rural communities in Africa’s Least Developed Countries delivering a plethora of benefits including health, wellbeing, gender equality, climate, the environment, nature, education and economic. Read more about our project benefits here or see the impact a cookstove has on families here. 

Our credits are registered under VERRA’s Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) programme, the world’s largest greenhouse gas crediting programme. This means you can have confidence that for every 1 credit you purchase, 1 tonne of COemissions has been avoided, alongside providing multiple health and environmental benefits.

What’s more, credits from our Rwanda projects are the very first to receive Article 6 Corresponding Adjustment (CA) labels from VERRA. Thanks to our 14-year close working partnership with the Government of Rwanda, (GoR) Letters of Authorisation have been signed with the Rwanda Environment Management Authority (REMA), the designated national authority of the GoR, which enables the issuance of the CA labels. A Corresponding Adjustment addresses the potential issue of double counting emission reductions. The project host country, Rwanda, agrees to not count the emissions reductions from the project as part of their national commitment to lower carbon emissions. 

This provides even greater assurance around the integrity of our credits and makes them a more meaningful and valuable purchase. This will encourage further investment in DelAgua’s projects and we will be able to extend operations to new markets and accelerate action on dirty cooking.

 So, by buying your carbon credits directly from us at DelAgua you are ensuring that the credits you purchase are of the highest integrity, that they are retired – you will receive the retirement certificates – and that all your money goes directly to supporting Live Well, providing lifechanging stoves and education to the poorest rural communities across Africa. 

There is no better offset action you can take.
