BLEENS - Biogas, Liquefied Petroleum Gas, Electricity, Ethanol, Natural Gas, and Solar
Definition
BLEENS = Biogas, Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), Ethanol,Electricity, Natural gas, and Solar.[1]
- This definition is used in the Global Tracking Framework for measuring Energy Acess.
Cooking Energy
BLEENS cooking solutions: Biogas, LPG, electricity, ethanol, natural gas, and solar cookers are cooking solutions that typically deliver high performance in terms of reducing household air pollution—often (although not always) regardless of the type of cookstove used—and are collectively called BLEENS. These cooking solutions are often considered “modern” or “clean” solutions.[1]
BLEENS-equivalent cooking solutions: Cooking solutions that deliver household air pollution performance similar to BLEENS (biogas, LPG, electricity, ethanol, natural gas, and solar) solutions are called BLEENS-equivalent solutions.[1]
