Uncovering Fuel Stacking Behaviors – Introducing a New Survey Tool for Clean Cooking Enterprises
Fuel stacking is when a household uses multiple fuels or cooking solutions concurrently. While fuel stacking in itself is not a problem – cooking with a range of fuels is common across markets – many clean cooking enterprises rely on customer fuel sales to power their business models, given high upfront costs of technologies.
To tackle this issue effectively, the Clean Cooking Alliance (CCA)’s User Insights Lab (UIL), in collaboration with researchers at the University of Liverpool and University College London, has developed a survey tool tailored specifically for clean cooking enterprises. Grounded in academic research, this toolkit offers a strategic appreciation of the various individual, socio-cultural and environmental influences on a household’s choice of fuel.
On 19 November 2024, CCA’s User Insights Lab hosted a webinar with the lead designer behind the survey, Dr. Tash Perros, for a walk through of the tool and a discussion of how the behavioral insights gained can be used by organizations to promote more exclusive use of clean cooking fuels and technologies.
