Switzerland and Malawi Authorise the First Article 6.2 Activity – Malawi Dairy Biogas

A dairy biogas carbon project in Malawi has received host country authorisation under Article 6.2 of the Paris Agreement, marking the first authorisation of its kind under the bilateral climate agreement between Malawi and Switzerland. Developed in partnership with Sistema.bio, EcoGen, ACT Group, and the KliK Foundation, the programme captures methane emissions from dairy farming and converts them into biogas, supporting both emissions reduction and rural energy access. With authorisation in place, the project is expected to generate internationally transferable carbon credits, subject to corresponding adjustments to prevent double counting. The development highlights growing momentum in bilateral carbon market cooperation and the emergence of agriculture-based mitigation projects within Article 6.2 frameworks.
