Great news this week, Gold Standard confirmed that two more micro scale borehole projects in Malawi have been listed. Therefore, now we have six micro-scale borehole projects in total listed in Dowa and Kasungu districts in central Malawi. The latest two Gold Standard approved borehole projects are active in the Dowa district , with estimated emission reductions of 20,000 tonnes annually, 10,000 for each project.

It is worth mentioning that for the purpose of our micro scale borehole projects in Malawi we have repaired more than 60 boreholes which are currently providing with clean water to approximately 6000 households, while also avoiding 60,000 tonnes of GHG emissions in total every year.
