About this project

The goal of the Cleanstar Mozambique - Maputo Ethanol Cookstove and Cooking Fuel Project 1 is to facilitate a transition away from inefficient conventional non-renewable biomass stoves by disseminating up to 30,000 clean burning and highly efficient cooking stoves to households throughout urban and peri-urban areas of Maputo. Several greenhouse gases (GHG), including carbon dioxide, are produced as a result of the combustion of non-renewable biomass (primarily charcoal) used in traditional unimproved cooking stoves, and these GHGs would be avoided with the switch to the clean and efficient project renewable cookstoves (RCS) and fuel, such as the Ndzilo solution, which use ethanol cooking fuel made from renewable biomass.
