This grant is designed to foster research, development, and tools that enhance the viability and widespread deployment of clean, efficient biomass cookstoves. The primary purpose is to develop technologies that are affordable and durable for communities currently reliant on biomass fuels. Stoves must be safe, adaptable to local conditions and fuels, and achieve or surpass the highest performance levels for total and indoor emissions, efficiency, and safety. A key objective is ensuring field performance mirrors laboratory results. This initiative aims to drive the adoption of user-desirable stoves that deliver significant health improvements, reduce labor and financial burdens, and provide environmental benefits for soil and forests.

Description: | The goal of this solicitation is to increase the viability and deployment of renewable energy technologies through research, development, and tools that lead to clean and efficient biomass cookstoves. This solicitation seeks to develop cookstove technologies that: – Are low-cost and affordable in regions that currently rely predominantly on biomass fuels for household energy; – Are durable and safe, address the conditions, use the biomass fuels, and meet the needs of the people in geographical areas in which the stoves will be ultimately deployed; – Aim to meet or exceed the highest level of stove performance for total and indoor emissions, efficiency, and safety; and – Achieve field performance that is comparable to stove performance in laboratory testing. These goals are intended to drive technology developments that can support the widespread adoption of affordable, user-desirable stoves that provide significant health benefits, labor and financial savings, and soil and forestry benefits. |
