“Carbon Credit Finance Can Bring Clean Cooking to Every Home in Africa” an OP-ED by Peter Scott
“Today, carbon finance alone can generate the capital needed to lead the clean cooking transition. The amount needed is less than people might imagine, for example, a $1 billion investment can deliver ~30 million stoves. These stoves can then generate enough carbon credit revenue over a 7-year crediting period to repay the principal investment and still subsidise an additional 50 million stoves, or about the number of stoves that Africa needs each year.”

“More Money, Fewer Problems: Closing Africa’s Climate Finance Gap” a report by BCG
🔹 $2.4 trillion is required until 2030 to meet Africa’s climate needs, but only 12% of this funding has been met or committed. 🔹 Macroeconomic uncertainty, opportunity cost of capital, and investor risk assessment—resulting in financing costs 5-6% greater than in comparable emerging markets—creates a major impediment to investment flow into green sectors.
