About this project
The purpose of the project activity is to replace inefficient traditional cook stoves with efficient “HAPPY” Improves Cook Stoves in households throughout northeastern Nigeria, with a target of 50,000 ICS per year. By reducing fuel wood consumption, the project activity reduces greenhouse gas emissions stemming from the use of non-renewable biomass.
