Description

The Vida Mejor con Ecofogones de Alto Rendimiento, Honduras is a CDM Programme of Activities (PoA) that aims at disseminating improved cook-stoves in households of Honduras. A large portion of the rural population in Honduras is dependent on traditional cook stoves commonly referred to as fogones. These traditional cook stoves are energy inefficient resulting in incomplete burning of biomass thereby releasing high levels of indoor air pollutants and GHG emissions. The programme envisages offsetting the high-emission, low efficiency traditional cook-stoves by dissemination of high efficiency, low-emission, improved cook-stoves. Thus, the project reduces GHG emissions through reduction of non-renewable fuel consumption by virtue of its higher efficiency.
