Efficient Cook Stove Success at Adabraka Market
Resounding success! That was the overwhelming feedback from the beneficiaries of the first phase of energy4everyone’s micro-finance program to distribute energy efficient charcoal cook stoves at Adabraka Market in Accra, Ghana. The first phase occurred in February this year.
In addition to touring and talking to beneficiaries at the market this week, energy4everyone had already surveyed 62 of the 160 beneficiaries to assess phase one of the program. All of the beneficiaries asked said the stoves used less charcoal, saved them money, cooked food more quickly, and 60% of the beneficiaries said that some food tasted better.
You can view photographs of the efficient cook stoves, as well as the less efficient traditional cook stoves, in use at Adabraka Market by visiting our website at http://www.energy4everyone.com/projects/efficient-charcoal-cookstoves/, or at our Flickr site at http://www.flickr.com/energy4everyone.
