Stovers,

The message below from Kirk Smith has implications far beyond the use with LPG stoves, and should be known and considered by any Stover who want information about frequency of stove usage.

The abstract is informative.   The full paper seems to be behind a paywall at least for now.  The makers of the Pink Key could perhaps provide the important information.

This will probably not be presented at ETHOS 2019, but should be acknowledged in any reports about monitoring of stove use with various devices.

Subject: [stove] The Pink Key

One of the newer applications of measurement gadgets to household air pollution issues.  May be a way for increasing usage of LPG or other clean fuel options, as CCT has done for other health-giving technologies.  One outcome from our ISN funded study in Maharasthra.  More to come.

The Pink Key: a low-cost stove use monitor to enable conditional cash transfers.

Pillarisetti A, Gill M, Allen T, Madhavan S, Dhongade A, Ghorpade M, Roy S, Balakrishnan K, Juvekar S, Smith KR, 2018, Ecohealth 15: 768–776, doi.org/10.1007/s10393-018-1379-5<http://doi.org/10.1007/s10393-018-1379-5>

Abstract: Conditional cash transfers (CCTs)—cash payments provided to households or specific household
members who meet defined conditions or fulfill certain behaviors—have been extensively used in India to
encourage antenatal care, institutional delivery, and vaccination. This paper describes the social design and
technical development of a low-cost, meal-counting stove use monitor (the Pink Key) that enables a CCT based
on liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) usage and presents pilot data from its testing and the initial deployment. The
system consists of a sensing harness attached to a two-burner LPG stove and an easily removable datalogger.
For each cooking event with LPG, households receive 2 rupees—less than the cost of fuel, but enough to
partially defray LPG refill costs. The system could enable innovative ‘‘self-monitoring’’ at a large scale—
participants initiate the CCT by bringing their Pink Key to antenatal clinic visits, where care providers
download data and initiate payments, and participants return the sensor to their stove at home. The system
aligns with existing Indian programs to improve health among poor, pregnant women, and contributes a new
method to encourage the use of clean cooking technologies.
