About this project
This VPA plans to replace traditional cookstoves in Zambia with SupaMoto’s clean cooking system based on gasifier cookstoves and biomass pellets, or with other, similar technologies. It focuses on replacing charcoal which is responsible for severe deforestation in Zambia. It aims at reducing greenhouse gas emissions and providing better living conditions at households, especially improving the health of women and children by reducing indoor air pollution.
