In seven villages, between 25% and 40% of households have adopted the stove. Factors contributing to the success include funding via carbon offsets, attaining critical mass of households, adequate supplies of appropriate fuel, fuel cost savings, installment payments for the BOP (Base of the Pyramid), and stove maintenance services. Unique to this project, and very well received by the households, is the creation of household income from the sales of charcoal byproducts produced in the stove while cooking. Similar results should be possible in other communities in developing societies.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=m-7689852493288404355xm6960100288658698537m5218508618262865876msonospacing style='margin-bottom:12.0pt;background:white'><span lang=EN-US>*********************<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span lang=EN-US>Speaking personally, I have wanted this type of result for many many years.
