Upenergygroup

UpEnergy is a social enterprise that designs and implements decarbonization projects for carbon buyers, governments, and climate-finance partners, while delivering clean technologies to low-income communities across Africa and beyond.

Key capabilities include:

• Electric cooking carbon projects in Ghana, Uganda, Tanzania, and Zambia, including projects underway such as GS11578 and GS10963; the organisation issued the world’s first carbon credits linked to electric cooking (2023).
• Fuel-efficient household cooking programmes distributing charcoal-saving stoves across Uganda, Tanzania, Malawi, Nigeria, Zambia, Ghana, Mozambique, and DRC, including projects such as GS10898, VCS2789, VCS2676, and VCS2673; reported reductions include cutting charcoal needs by up to 56.57%.
• Safe water provision systems for households and schools in Uganda, Malawi, and Zambia (for example GS10963) using treatment systems that remove 99.99% of bacteria, reducing the need to boil water with firewood.
• Monitoring, verification, and advisory using IoT and sensor monitoring to support credit integrity, plus a carbon advisory service for companies.

Available via a web presence (project and partnership information online).

Target audience: B2B partners such as carbon credit buyers (compliance and voluntary markets), intermediaries, governments, and organisations seeking project development and carbon advisory support.
