☐ Low Risk ☒ Moderate Risk The project is specifically designed to reduce environmental stresses on biomass resources and on atmospheric carbon loading. Design measures have been put in place to ensure a participatory and private sector-driven approach linking policy, market and household interventions, thereby reducing implementation risks and securing, as much as possible, the greenhouse gas emission reduction potential of the project. The issue of safe disposal of PV panels and batteries has been identified and specifically addressed. Overall, the project risk is considered moderate: i.e. it “includes activities with potential adverse social and environmental risks and impacts, that are limited in scale, can be identified with a reasonable degree of certainty, and can be addressed through application of standard best practice, mitigation measures and stakeholder engagement during Project implementation.” . ☐ High Risk QUESTION 5: Based on the identified risks and risk categorization, what requirements of the SES are relevant?
