Evaluation of an improved cookstove in households in Zambia

Southern Africa
by BerkeleyAir January 1, 2017

Berkeley Air supported an improved cookstove project to conduct a survey to determine rates of stove usage and loss among beneficiaries and to measure the fuel efficiency of each stove vintage using the water boiling test (WBT). Results were used to develop a methodology for forecast greenhouse gas emissions reductions.
