Dear List

 

Both links worked for me. The webinars are separately registered.

            2.  I am cc'ing Elisa Derby in hopes that she can get the
(probably quite similar) 2016 presentations of this following group up on
the ETHOS website, before this event.

 

            3.  In case Elisa can't do that yet, here are somewhat similar
PPts that were given a year earlier by the same seven groups.

 

On 22nd

            4.  Thanks to Winrock and DoE's Dr.  Elliott Levine for ensuring
that this DoE work gets wide visibility.  Let's hope that more federal funds
can be made available soon for stove research.  

 

Anyone know of any similar upcoming stove event?

  February 22 & 24, 2016
10:00 a.m - 11:30 a.m Eastern Standard Time (EST)


                                                                  




 

As part of the U.S. Government support for the Global Alliance for Clean
Cookstoves, the U.S. Department of Energy (U.S. DOE) <http://energy.gov/>
awarded $10 million in grants for research aimed at addressing technical
barriers to the development of low emission, high efficiency cookstoves
through activities in areas such as combustion, heat transfer and materials
development.  Each project falls into at least one of the following four
categories: developing low cost, durable stoves that achieve stringent
efficiency and emissions goals; understanding the engineering science for
advanced stoves; identifying stove designs to meet local cooking needs, and;
identifying the nuances of successful stove dissemination and field
performance.  

Please join us for a two-part webinar series on Monday, February 22 and
Wednesday, February 24 for an update on the U.S. DOE projects.  Presenters
from each project will give an overview of their project and share
preliminary findings and results, after an introduction and overview by
DOE's Elliott Levine each day.  Please see the schedule of presentations and
presenters below.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) and Winrock
International have been engaged in the household energy field for many
years, including through coordination of the Partnership for Clean Indoor
Air (PCIA) and its 590 Partners working in 117 countries from 2002-2012.
Since the integration of PCIA and the Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves
in 2012, Winrock and the U.S. EPA have continued working to increase the
exchange of technical information among public and private organizations
working in the global household energy and health sectors through local
capacity building, targeted technical assistance and field studies and
global knowledge sharing. The goal of these activities is to promote
effective approaches that lead to increased use of clean, reliable,
affordable, efficient, and safe home cooking and heating practices.
