About this project

The project “MIVO Energie – Enabling LPG access for cooking in Togo” aims to develop access to Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG or gas) for fuel-poor populations living, dependent on firewood and charcoal in areas with high wood energy consumption through the development of appropriate financial services, subsidies, marketing campaign and channel expansions. The use of non-renewable woody biomass contributes to deforestation and emits a lot of toxic smoke. Gas represents an alternative energy to the use of woody biomass for the cooking needs of households and street food vendors. Promoting the use of this energy therefore makes it possible to transfer household energy demand to another fuel, thus easing the pressure on the vegetation cover. In addition, gas cooking significantly reduces greenhouse gas (GHG) and fine particle emissions, thus contributing to the fight against climate change. Gas cooking also has a health impact, as it considerably reduces the inhalation of harmful fumes by users, while providing incomparable cooking comfort. Mivo Energie aims to remove these barriers to adoption of this clean and economical cooking method by developing networks for the distribution of quality equipment and gas refills, and by setting up innovative financial services to facilitate access for vulnerable households.
