Stovers, <br>

The following arrived directly from Kirk Smith (sent before I sent
my previous message commenting on his recent book chapter). His
message was as if it were an answer to my message. Smith wrote:<br>

The start of my response appeared a year ago (Sept
2016) when the Case Study of TLUD stoves in Deganga
was placed on the Internet.
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.drtlud.com/deganga2016">www.drtlud.com/deganga2016</a> Written in June 2016,
its data now is nearly 1.5 years old. And things are

At the GACC Forum this month there is a presentation
Tuesday PM about India stove activities, including as
a presenter Mr. Moulindu Banerjee, the key
implementaion partner in the Deganga efforts and
subsequent work. And at 7:30 AM on Wednesday I am
leading a discussion about TLUD issues and
accomplishments and potential. Expect to learn

Expansion into projects on-going now with
approximately 3000 new stoves PER MONTH. The limits
on the number of stoves are mainly financial regarding
the overall project size. Industrial capacity for
stove production is plentiful in India.<br>

Adoption (that is, acceptance) of the stoves is
between 50% and 70% of all of the households in the
communities to which the sales offer is made. The
populations are mainly rural poor and peri-urban
working poor. There is no shortage of potential
users / adopters.<br>

The consistent and continual daily usage of these

the carbon credit funding. This is ongoing for about
5 years in the Deganga households. </o:p></span><span

Yes, these stoves are very clean burning. Not
perfect, but they are micro-gasifiers, not some simple
ICS stoves. They are among the "MACCS" (Modern
Advanced Clean Cooking Solutions). Who says so?
Well, the GACC and ESMAP jointly published in 2015 a
classification system, which I have expanded and
reorgnized for clarity of message. If you do a
Google search for stove classification the
4th and 5th items down both lead to my documents <br>
