Econetix secures 10 million tonne Article 6 authorisation in Uganda for clean cookstoves

Carbon asset manager Econetix received a Letter of Authorisation from the Ugandan government for up to 10 million tCO2e for its clean cookstove projects, valid for vintages 2025-2030. This marks the largest single Article 6 authorisation granted to a private company in Uganda. The agreement expands Econetix’s total authorised CORSIA-eligible portfolio to 12.5 million tonnes across three African nations, including previous approvals in DRC and Rwanda. The company plans to pursue similar authorisations in Tanzania, Malawi, and other African countries. This authorisation aims to address the projected deficit in CORSIA-eligible emissions units for international aviation.
