[Stoves] Stove info: Useful GIZ-HERA document

[Paul Anderson]

Stovers,

At the GACC Forum we found out about MANY things that somehow do not 
come to our attention on the Stoves Listserv .  But it has been 
announced (26 Jan 2012   yes, 2012) on the Stoves website, but I and 
perhaps others have missed it.

There is a MAJOR item about stoves written and available from GIZ HERA at:

https://energypedia.info/wiki/GIZ_HERA_Cooking_Energy_Compendium

And while you are at it, just look at the root URL where there is even 
more links:
                     https://energypedia.info/

I have not sorted through all of the information, and my quick look has 
not found any reference to TLUD or Top-Lit UpDraft or 
Micro-gasification.     But it is a    wiki    and we all can make 
contributions (but we have time constraints, and there are so many 
places that would also take in the wiki content.   I am working full 
time on TLUD stoves and I cannot keep up even with placing items to my 
own website at    www.drtlud.com   )

It is interesting to me that such resources (these and others) can often be:
unknown,
under-utilized
repetitious
soooooooooooooo useful!!
overwhelming
etc.

How can such resources be put to better use?

GIZ HERA has a part of the gigantic      GIZ.de   website.   The GIZ 
HERA site is:

http://www.giz.de/Themen/en/12941.htm

And there I did not find a quick way to the     energypedia cited above, 
nor a quick link to a digital copy of the very nice tri-fold brochure 
that was available at the GACC Forum.   That brochure gives a great 
summary of the    energypedia     efforts. Maybe GIZ HERA can place a 
digital copy of the _brochure_ to the Stoves Website to again call this 
fine resource to the attention of all Stovers.

I hope that you find this message to be useful.   And think of all the 
Stovers who are not subscribed to the Stoves Listserv.

Paul
