Webinar on All Relevant Cooking Systems in a Word

This webinar briefly introduces different cooking energy systems such as processed biomass, firewood, e-cooking, LPG, ethanol and biogas.

Glossary for Clean Cooking

This glossary includes the common terminologies used in clean cooking sector.

Household Survey template P.27 USAID

This template covers a range of information important to understand detailed information on the household level about cooking practices and fuels used. It provides a guide to select the sample and for its implementation. It has the following sections:

  • General information
  • Meals
  • Cooking practices
  • Stove use
  • Fuel consumption

Decision Tree Diagram for Choosing a Cooking Fuel Strategy in Protracted Settings. Assessment 3

The IASC Task Force SAFE provides comprehensive factors to take into account while doing an assessment of the energy need and consumption of the population in protracted crises.

The use of fuels is the third point of its factors for assessment. It includes aspects such as cultural considerations, health, safety and impact during use; and possibilities for using fuels as livelihoods activity. In the latter, according to the decision tree diagram is important to undertake market and user surveys. For the factor of cultural considerations it is important to take a participatory assessment e.g. focus group. Additional considerations regarding possible decisions are explore in the tool.

Pre-assessment checklist for cooking energy interventions:

This document provides a checklist for the cooking energy intervention program. The checklist is designed to be implemented before the design and implementation of the program.

Fuel Analysis, Comparison & Integration Tool (FACIT)

This tool from Clean Cooking Alliance provides interactive access to data and information generated from a comparative analysis conducted 2015-2016.

Toolkit: Fuel Efficient Stove Programs in Humanitarian Settings

This toolkit provides a step-by-step process of assessment, planning, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation of a cooking activity.

Handbook: Assessing woodfuel supply and demand in displacement settings

This handbook provides guidelines for establishing a baseline for planning, monitoring and evaluating cooking energ interventions.

A Review of Cooking Systems for Humanitarian Settings

This paper outlines the types of improved cooking systems available and experiences in humanitarian settings followed by how a appropriate cooking response package could be designed.

Safe Access to Fuel and Energy (SAFE) Toolbox

The toolbox shows a method to implement the baseline assessment of energy consumption in displacement settings with an emphasis on wood fuel. It mentions how the consumption varies because of the specific site factors, such as, availability and quantity of wood and other energy resources, type and quantity of food cooked, cooking practices, among others. It provides a worksheet model to determine the average consumption of energy among categories such as households, clinic, schools, administration centers and others. See pages 3 and 4.
