[Stoves] Fwd: GIZ HERA new publications

[CHRISTA ROTH]

Dear all, find below the links to new publications by GIZ HERA poverty- 
oriented basic energy services, among them  the manual on Micro- 
gasification: Cooking with gas from biomass. For queries please refer  
to the respective authors or Michael Blunck from HERA.

Please note: Although the IT-department is doing wonders, the  
transition from GTZ to GIZ involves certain challenges for the web- 
managers. Should you encounter any difficulties accessing the  
documents, please inform HERA.

Kind regards
Christa Roth

       Small-scale Electricity Generation from Biomass – Part III:  
Vegetable Oil
http://www.gtz.de/de/dokumente/giz2011-en-small-scale-electricity-generation-from-biomass-part-III.pdf
In the third and final part of HERA’s paper series on power generation  
from biomass, GIZ and non-GIZ experience with electricity production  
from vegetable oils is compiled. While from a technology point-of- 
view, plant oils constitute a very viable option for off-grid power  
generation in developing countries, their sustainable application in  
daily operation for rural electrification projects still remains rare.  
The paper identifies remaining bottlenecks and provides  
recommendations for future electrification projects based on plant oil.

·         Carbon Markets for Improved Cooking Stoves – Revised  
Edition: January 2011
http://www.gtz.de/de/dokumente/giz2011-en-carbon-markets-for-improved-stoves.pdf
After receiving a lot of positive feedback for the 2010 edition of the  
carbon market guidebook for cooking stove projects, HERA has come up  
with a major revision for 2011. Besides a large number of minor  
corrections and updates, a new chapter on “Implementing a Carbon- 
funded Cooking Stove Project” with information on how to practically  
design a carbon-funded stove project has been added. The chapter  
includes information on stakeholders’ roles and responsibilities, the  
CDM-PoA approach, recommendations on the use of carbon revenues as  
well as an overview on expected costs and revenues from a stove  
project on the carbon market.
