Clean development mechanism (CDM)

Kenya Power and Lighting Company Limited (KPLC) initiated the Energy Supply and Efficiency Improvements Project. As part of the project consultants have been engaged to study 13 sub-projects for potential development, reinforcement and expansion of the 132/33kV grid network of KPLC. This project is for Assignment I, which includes four of the 13 subprojects. Included within the Phase 1 scope of work was an assessment of the potential of developing any of the four sub-projects as a CDM project. The scope included an assessment of compliance with CDM eligibility criteria, identification of existing T&D project types,  key barriers and significant issues for T&D CDM projects and suggested measures to address these barriers, and a high level estimate of the quantity of CERs that could be generated on a per MWh saved basis.
