cooking devices for rural India



LPG has become popular all over India because of its extreme user friendliness.  Housewives have changed their ethnic and cultural cooking habits, scrapped their traditional cookpots and purchased new ones that suit the LPG stoves. Biogas has the same qualities as LPG but the biogas technology failed to become popular in India because everybody was supposed to make his own biogas. We are working towards establishing rural enterprises producing and selling biogas.  The so called community biogas plants have not at all been successful in India, but we feel that we have the right formula to make them successful. I am trying to get funding for establishing a pilot plant based on my ideas, and shall report about it when it gets going.
