Energy Efficient Stoves Program - CPA1
Gold Standard · GS11147 · Ethiopia
About this project
This project involves the distribution of energy efficient cooking stoves to households in the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia. The majority of households in rural areas of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia cook over open fire, and this leads to a very significant consumption of wood, as well as a major health risk. To combat this problem, this project will distribute low cost, high efficiency stove designs that use considerably less wood than conventional open fires.
