Microfinance Intervention for Financing Solar Cooking Technologies

Microfinance Intervention for Financing Solar Cooking Technologies

Executive Summary of a Research Project on Microfinancing for Solar Cooking that Solar Household Energy contracted in 2011. The full paper is currently being reviewed for publication and will be made available when published.

“Solar Household Energy (SHE) has been promoting the multiple benefits of solar cooking since 1998, with its co-founders each possessing more than 20 years of experience with the technology. When the founders discovered that no durable, portable, affordable device was readily available for purchase off-the-shelf to use in solar cooking projects around the world, they worked to develop specifications and contracted for development and manufacture of the HotPot Solar Oven. Since that time, Solar Household Energy has introduced solar cooking projects and training in many countries throughout Latin America and Africa, gaining valuable knowledge with each introduction. Today we continue to promote solar cooking, in all its various technological forms and devices, for its many economic, environmental, social and health benefits.”
