About this project

This project involves the distribution of approximately 8000 domestic fuel-efficient cook stoves to households within the Anseba district in Eritrea.The objective of this project is to improve and promote the livelihood of rural households in Zoba Anseba and reduce their demand for wood fuel by providing them with improved traditional stoves for cooking (Mogogo). The improved traditional stove was developed by the Department of Energy (Ministry of Energy and Mines) through research and development done at the Energy Research Centre of the Ministry and it is already successfully used in several thousand households in other regions of Eritrea. Thanks to its improved efficiency, the stoves will not only reduce the demand for fuel wood by 60%-70%, thereby reducing environmental degradation and greenhouse gas emissions, but it will also improve the health of women and children who are responsible for managing the stoves.
