[Stoves] LPG Watch - Update 2017-07-03

[Paul Anderson]

Stovers,

FYI.    Attached is an update about the LPG program in India, entitled:
> Comments on the National LPG Programme of India
> Kirk R. Smith and Ajay Pillarisetti
> /[They] discuss two of the three major issues slowing usage of LPG by 
> the poor in India and how the new national programme attempts to deal 
> with them:  upfront costs and reliability of refills.   In a later 
> post, we will discuss the third major barrier, the cost of refills for 
> poor families./

The references to stove stacking and people using solid biomass fuel 
stoves (e.g., wood) do not include any TLUD micro-gasifiers, which are 
still all concentrated in West Bengal.   SOMEDAY (not yet) there will be 
sufficient LPG and TLUD stoves in the same area for comparisons to be made.
