Estimate the potential carbon benefit earn by shifting households to improved cookstoves
January 23, 2023
| Ongoing project
| Energy Access | Air | Climate Change
Indoor air pollution is a critical issue in rural areas. The use of biomass in the traditional household cookstove of the rural areas is also an important source of atmospheric black carbon. Conventional cooking methods have also been reported as important source of ambient air pollution in different cities. Promoting cleaner fuels like LPG to remote rural areas has different issues.
