[Stoves] Testing and Development Laboratories

[Tom Miles]

Crispin, Jonathan,

 

Thanks. We'll list and link these. 

 

The reason for asking is that one way to stimulate stove improvement might
be enable producers to access and get support from labs. I have seen
situations where a design gets "stuck" without being further developed due
to lack of technical support. Organizations involved in production and
dissemination often don't have the appropriate resources. 

 

What would labs need funding support for? Equipment? Personnel? Conducting
tests, design and development? Or all of these?

 

Tom
