Simple Yet Powerful Solution

Every day, millions of women and girls around the world breathe in harmful smoke while cooking and spend hours walking far distances to secure cooking fuel. In most rural Nigerian communities, 1 in 4 women and girls have been raped, assaulted or beaten whenever they went in search of firewood. Reliance on polluting open fires and inefficient fuels leads to health problems (emphysema, cataracts, cancer, heart disease, etc.) and economic burdens that disproportionately impact women and girls. A reduction in time spent collecting fuel and cooking enables women to spend more time with their children, and tend to other responsibilities.

Powerstove provides cleaner, more efficient cookstoves and bio-fuels to women while also giving them income-generation opportunities as business owners and entrepreneurs at the center of the clean cookstoves value chain. Increased access to Powerstove clean cookstoves can reduce the health and safety issues caused by household air pollution and decrease the time women spend collecting cooking fuel. Women can then reallocate this time to educational, income-generating, and leisure activities. The proprietary Powerstove built-in IoT technology will then help track (in real time), quantify and monetize the carbon offsets generated by the project and reinvest the funds in other community.
