Program Overview

Sustainable Water for Madagascar

Launched in early 2025, the Ranovola Water Program is a partnership between Virridy and Helvetas to provide sustainable drinking water services across the Diana, Menabe, and Amoron'i Mania regions of Madagascar.

The program deploys gravity-fed water systems and solar-powered pumping technologies, combined with Virridy's digital monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV) technologies for carbon credit validation.

Carbon credits are generated under Gold Standard's "Emission Reductions from Safe Drinking Water Supply" framework through avoided greenhouse gas emissions from reduced water boiling. Revenue supports operational costs, system maintenance, and infrastructure expansion.

Digital MRV Innovation

Virridy's digital monitoring, reporting, and verification technologies provide real-time data on water system performance, supporting transparent carbon credit validation. This technology platform, proven across multiple countries, ensures the highest quality carbon credits backed by continuous operational data.
