  • Programme: Gold Standard, CCP-eligible since April 2024.
  • GS TPDDTEC - Technologies and Practices to Displace Decentralized Thermal Energy Consumption - 2.0-3.1: approved
  • Reduced Emissions from Cooking and Heating (RECH) formerly TPDDTEC - 4.0: approved
  • Reduced Emissions from Cooking and Heating (RECH) formerly TPDDTEC - 5.0: under assessment

The CCP label is applied to credits by the registry, issuance by issuance. An approved methodology means credits from this project can be eligible; it does not mean every credit carries the label.
