Cookstoves

Cookstove projects introduce improved, energy-efficient cooking devices into communities, primarily in developing countries, to replace traditional cooking methods. These stoves can significantly reduce GHG emissions and indoor air pollution. Other benefits often include improved health from less smoke inhalation, reduced fuel expenditures, time savings (especially for women due to reduced cooking times), and decreased local deforestation. These projects are crucial for addressing energy poverty, improving living conditions, and promoting sustainable development in areas facing high levels of need.
