Clean cooking isn’t one market with one answer. Different fuels and technologies are reshaping how households cook. They help cut emissions, improve health, and drive sustainable change in their own ways. We’ve identified seven fuel types with strong commercial potential. Each brings its own innovations, growth opportunities, and challenges for businesses and investors. Explore the options below to learn about the companies leading this transition, the solutions they’re delivering, and where smart investment can make the greatest impact.
Go beyond lab data to see how these technologies perform in the real world. Our innovation case studies show clear examples of how innovation affects user health, the environment, and cost. This is the evidence you need to gauge a technology’s true potential for success and scalability.
This global database contains performance data for hundreds of stoves, with test metrics for efficiency, emissions, and safety based on trusted lab protocols like the ISO 19867 standard. To ensure full transparency, we clearly identify whether the results are from a third party or self-reported.
