Dear Stovers and GACC

The discussion on the list must be crucial for GACC, though the end user for the program naturally dos not participate in the discussion.  The academic part of the discussion is really informative and important for us stove designers but probably not that much for the end user. I feel there is too much focus on stoves on the list and to little focus on the end user, the cook and the fuel. What are the priorities of the end user? 

1.       Price of stoves 

2.       Price of fuel

3.       Economy 

4.       Jobs

5.       Waste as fuel

6.       Soot, tar on the pot and smoke

7.       Practical  use of stoves and fuel

8.       Design.

9.       Boiling beans.

10.   Minutes to boil 5 liter of water and MJ

11.   Health 

12.   Environment

13.   Biochar

It could be useful for all of us and especially for GACC, which has a unique possibility with this program to really change the household energy and health situation for the low income population in the world and in addition open for utilization of combustible waste and income generating activities.
