Electric Cooking

A broad range of energy-efficient appliances, such as electric pressure cookers, induction stoves, and rice cookers, are available for cooking with both alternating current and direct current. These energy-efficient products can enable electric cooking (often referred to as e-cooking) on weak grids, mini-grids, and stand-alone systems, as well as on conventional electric utility grids.

CCA defines “e-cooking companies” as those that are involved in the design or manufacture of e-cooking appliances, batteries, or solar photovoltaics, with business models that make them affordable to people living in low-and-middle-income countries.
