The Green Household

This project aims to produce improved stoves in order to generate environmentally friendly and economical green coal in the future. The aim of the project is to protect the environment and reduce energy expenditures in Africa.

An initiative of Centre de recherche d'invention et d'innovation technologique CRIIT-Lado concept/ Research Centre for Invention and Technological Innovation CRIIT-Lado Concept

Overview of the project

Initially, the project aims to produce economical and environmentally friendly improved stoves that use renewable energy, in particular solar energy. In a second phase, green charcoal will be produced from the stoves, contributing to environmental protection and sustainable development from an SDG perspective.

Objective

Protecting the environment and reducing energy expenditures in Africa for a sustainable development.

Level of progress

Ongoing research

Project timeline

2/2/2019- 2/2/2030

Quantitative results

Social Impact:

  • Thanks to the fan, the physical force required to ventilate the fire is removed, while saving three times the required heating time (from more than 20 min/2L to 5 min/2L).
  • Energy independent, with lighting at night and cooking at any time thanks to a renewable energy source (solar).
  • Improvement of social living conditions.

Economic Impact:

  • Reduction of monthly energy expenses related to cooking by more than 70% (from more than 9,000 F/month to 3,000 F/month).
  • Allows to cook for zero francs thanks to coal residues and solar energy.
  • Cooks three times faster.
Qualitative results

Environmental Impact:

  • Cooking based on renewable and sustainable energy source (solar and green coal).
  • Cooking with less CO2 emissions while protecting the environment by recycling residues via manufacturing briquettes.
Financing

Financing from own funds.
