📋 Tender Overview
The registration of the Tuki Wasi program in Renami projects a reduction of 726 thousand tons of CO2 by 2030 through the installation of improved stoves in rural areas.The Ministry of the Environment (Minam) approved the registration of the Tuki Wasi program in the National Registry of Mitigation Measures (Renami), becoming the first initiative in the country registered under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement, within the framework of the bilateral agreement signed between Peru and Switzerland.
With this decision, made official through Directorial Resolution No. D000002-2026-MINAM-VMDERN-DGCCD, the Peruvian State launches the operation of Renami, approved at the end of 2024 to promote projects linked to carbon markets under clear, predictable and transparent rules.
Article 6 of the Paris Agreement allows countries to cooperate to reduce emissions and mobilize climate investment. Thus, strategic projects developed in Peru can be recognized internationally, under standards that guarantee environmental integrity and avoid double accounting of reductions.
The Tuki Wasi program, developed by the Ruru Tarpuy Association, contemplates the installation of more than 60,000 improved stoves in rural homes in Cajamarca, Piura, Lambayeque, La Libertad and Huanuco, with an estimated reduction of 726,000 tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) between 2021 and 2030.
These stoves replace traditional wood stoves and allow cooking with greater efficiency and less smoke inside the home. In addition to reducing emissions, they improve respiratory health, reduce firewood consumption and alleviate the domestic burden.
The registration of the Tuki Wasi program demonstrates that the country has a solid framework to implement Article 6 of the Paris Agreement with transparency and responsibility, and highlighted that it is moving from the norm to concrete action, generating real benefits for the population.
The measure is articulated with the Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC), a commitment assumed by the country in the face of climate change, and marks a milestone in bilateral climate cooperation between Peru and Switzerland.
With this advance, Minam reaffirms the countrys leadership in the implementation of climate instruments with international standards, consolidates a system that attracts investment and strengthens the transition towards low-carbon development for the benefit of citizens.
