Dear Crispin,


Thanks, I found on the FAO website only data on the global wood charcoal
production for 2011:
http://faostat.fao.org/DesktopDefault.aspx?PageID=626&lang=en#ancor 

48 631 907.00 tons were produced globally this year. I am not sure we can
extrapolate the number of users from that.


Best,


Xavier

Dear Xavier

 

Try the FAO website. It has many reports on fuels and uses, country by
country in many cases.

 

Grant Ballard-Tremeer may have some ideas too.

 

Regards

Crispin

Hello stovers,

 

I have had and am still having trouble finding statistics on the number of
people using charcoal for cooking  in the world.

For some reason, it is very hard to find data about that. I couldn't find
anything in the GACC data or in the Practical Action Energy Outlook. There
are statistics on people using "solid fuels" or "traditional biomass", but
nothing specifically on charcoal. Maybe it will appear in the "Data and
statistics" section of the GACC website, which has been "Coming soon" for
quite some time already.

 

Maybe there's more info in the IEA World Energy Outlook?

 

Does anyone know where to find such info?

 

Cheers,

 

Xavier
