Impact of the use of traditional stoves • Traditional stoves cause indoor air pollution – Smoke is hazardous to health (e.g. eye ailment, bronchial diseases, headache, even cancer) Bangladesh: 14,000 women and 32,000 children die every year [WHO]  Wastage of fuel (efficiency: 5% - 10%)  Consumption of biomass Household: 8 kg/day Bangladesh: 80 – 100 million tons/year

Development of ICS  Performance of stove depends on - Fuel - Cooking habit - Food cooked  Development of improved stove started around 50 years ago  Many different stoves: e.g. Rocket stove  Stoves for coal, wood, char coal, briquette, straw (?)

Development of ICS in Bangladesh Institute of Fuel Research and Development (IFRD) of Bangladesh Council of Science and Industrial Research undertook research and development work on improved cook stove (ICS) in the 1980’s ICS with / without chimney Portable / fixed Half underground / over the ground Clay / Brick Updraft (30 models)  Down draft (Eindhoven Technical University of Holland) (9 models) Domestic / commercial

Improved Cook Stove (ICS) ICS developed by IFRD have following advantages: - efficiency: 26%-29% - significant fuel saving: 50% - 60% - reduction of indoor air pollution, especially for ICS with chimney - reduction of GHG emission (1.8 ton/ICS/year) - affordable to people (e.g. low cost) - acceptable by people - usable for all types of biomass available - locally available raw material

ICS being promoted by GIZ - Started in December 2005 - Adaptation of technology (IFRD, BCSIR) - Stove only with chimney (over the ground, half underground) - Learning through doing & field testing ○ 3-pot ICS with 1 chimney & 2 grates ○ 2-pot ICS with 1 chimney & 2 grates ○ 1-pot ICS with 1 chimney & 1 grate ○ clay / brick

GIZ Start - GIZ started with NISHORGO project of USAID - GIZ built up capacity of NGOs, starting with Grameen Shakti - More and more NGOs participated (RSF, Hilful Fuzl, UBOMUS, TMMS, RDF, etc.)

- over 250 NGOs

GIZ Approach  GIZ focuses on sustainability  GIZ aims to create market  GIZ tries to train up people who will build and sell ICS  For own profit, they will carry on ICS building and selling  ICS is simple, but a technical product; Quality should be maintained  User’s training ensures proper operation  Monitoring must be done on regular basis  GIZ understands that maintenance & after sales service must be ensured

Concrete ICS Mid 2010: start with concrete Stove (Bricks, sand, cement) Advantages: - can be produced with defined forms - quality can be maintained during production - can be installed quicker - can be used soon after installation - needs less maintenance and after sales service - lasts long - can even be shifted - total cost is almost same - a commercial good (household can not produce self!)

Activities  Creating functional supply chain  Creating Bondhu Chula entrepreneurs  Training of entrepreneurs and their technicians on marketing, production, installation, maintenance and after sales services  Awareness building and marketing  Coordination with local governments  Users’ training  Monitoring  Maintenance  After sales services  Data collection 30.05.2014 30.05.2014 30.05.2014

Market Development  The market of ICS is very low, although improved over the last few years.  Awareness building + Marketing to go simultaneously  Why awareness building?  People are not aware about effects of indoor air pollution  Traditional stoves are made by women themselves and do not cost  Traditional stoves are women’s own stoves  ICS costs money; HHs are reluctant to pay  Traditional stoves have to do with tradition of thousands of years  Biomass fuel is in rural areas mostly collected, in urban areas purchased  If fuel is collected, people do not value fuel saving  Cooking habit – behavioral change (very difficult!)
