About this project

The project will distribute improved charcoal stoves to the households in urban areas of Senegal which were earlier dependent on conventional stoves for cooking. The project will make the end-users energy efficient that will reduce greenhouse gas emissions otherwise resulting from the burning of non-renewable biomass for preparing meals. Westwind will ensure that an improved cooking technology distributed under the programme is accessible to all the end users covered under this PoA. The improved cookstoves will offer several environmental benefits such as reduction in the levels of indoor air pollution (IAP) thereby having a positive impact on the health of the community.
