Why Cleaner Cooking?

  • Nearly one third of the global population relies on hazardous rudimentary cooking methods (burning coal, firewood, and animal dung), leading to millions of premature deaths each year.

  • Women suffer the most due to limited access to clean cooking solutions, spending an average of five hours daily collecting fuel and cooking.

  • This deprives them of opportunities for education, employment, or financial independence.

  • Access to modern cooking appliances and reliable energy is often unaffordable or unattainable in developing economies.

    Clean cooking solutions can profoundly transform the lives of the 2.3 billion people who lack access, providing safer and efficient alternatives.

Transforming Lives: Cleaner Cooking for All

  • One fuel efficient cookstove will reduce daily household charcoal consumption by 45% - 55% thanks to improved thermal efficiency.

  • This saves households annual fuel expenditures that can then be repurposed for other priorities such as education and health.

  • Cookstoves are 100% locally manufactured creating employment and stimulating the local economy throughout the supply chain

  • Cuts cooking time; reduces trips to fetch cooking fuel and time saved can be used for productive activities e.g. education and income generation.

“It’s a good stove. Very economical, the food cooks well and is practical as they make little smoke. I now use less coal than I used before”
