Our Focus

Primary Initiatives, Target Populations, and Scope of Work:

ICEED is partnering with a number of institutions in providing institutional and household efficient woodstoves to the rural and urban poor. We currently partnering with GTZ to produce and install institutional efficient woodstoves in northern Nigeria. The improved woodfuel stoves project is targeted at the urban , peri urban and rural areas and it is on a national scale.

Fuels/Technologies: Alcohol Fuels
Biogas
Biomass
Hydroelectric
Kerosene
Liquid Petroleum Gas
Solar
 Sectors of Experience: Gender
Renewable Energy
Rural Development
Climate change		 Countries of Operation: Nigeria

Our Experience And Interest In The Four PCIA Central Focus Areas

Social/Cultural barriers to using traditional fuels and stoves:

ICEED in collaboration with GTZ in 2007, carried out a survey on institutional efficient woodstoves in Nasarawa and Niger States. One of the objectives of the survey was to discover what and if any barriers exist to using traditional fuels.
ICEED also conducted a survey in 2007 on household efficient woodstoves in selected rural and peri-urban areas across Nigeria. One of it's goals was also to determine barriers to using traditional fuels.

Market development for improved cooking technologies:

ICEED is working on a business plan that would be used to market improved woodstoves

Technology standardization for cooking, heating and ventilation:

ICEED is currently working with the Aprovencho research centre in USA to develop an institutional efficient woodstove that will suit the Nigerian environment. This is in addition to our collaboration with a Kenyan company to develop both household and institutional efficient woodstoves.

Indoor air pollution exposure and health monitoring:

We are developing a monitoring and evaluation mechanism. We intend to use the mechanism to monitor and evaluate stoves installed when we begin large scale production and installation of stoves.
