Business and financing models for PV supported clean cooking
Photovoltaic-supported cooking addresses both climate change mitigation and adaptation by reducing CO2 and other pollutant emissions by decreasing the dependence on unsustainably harvested biomass from local (and often fragile) ecosystems. With significant advancements and cost reductions in PV-supported clean cooking, scaling these solutions can help bridge the emissions gap and support several Sustainable Development Goals. Overcoming barriers to uptake requires supply and demand-side interventions, including affordable financing for viable business models discussed in this report, to facilitate household adoption of clean cooking technologies through scalable market-based approaches.
