BURN

Earlier when we spoke about this accessory people thought it was good marketing skill, but now am overwhelmed by the wonderful feedback everyone sharing how they are enjoying using it. Some says they have been looking for this thing but they really didn't know where to get or even if the ideal idea existed BURN got you covered.

Next week, I will be at Innovate4Climate in Berlin. On Wednesday morning, I'm joining a panel about the role of the #VoluntaryCarbonMarket in supporting universal access to clean cooking. Get in touch if you'd like to discuss cookstoves, high integrity carbon credits, or how we can scale the voluntary and compliance carbon markets.

BURN participated in the Clean Cooking Dialogue in Kizimkazi, Zanzibar, where we showcased our clean cooking appliances to key stakeholders, including Tanzania’s Deputy Prime Minister, Hon. Dr. Dotto Biteko.  Our Country Manager, John Mtui, took part in a panel discussion where he talked about BURN’s commitment to transitioning Tanzanian households to clean cooking, including our investment in the local assembly of our ECOA Induction Stoves in Kawe.  The ECOA Induction stove reduces carbon emissions by 2-3.5 tonnes annually and utilizes cellular-enabled IoT technology for real-time electricity monitoring. BURN offers “Pay-As-You-Cook" payment plans, making induction cookstoves accessible to low-income households. To date, BURN has brought clean cooking appliances accessible to ~ 200,000 households, with plans to expand this to 10 million households across the country.  

Meet Hamda: using an improved cookstove makes a huge impact on her daily life 🌟 The smoke created from Hamda’s traditional cookstove was giving her severe headaches. After switching to a more efficient Jikokoa cookstove, her health problems improved significantly and it’s now a companion to her daily life. 🥘    Like Hamda and many other Somalians facing health difficulties, traditional cooking methods also put a strain on a third of the global population, according to the World Health Organization, in terms of relying on unsafe and environmentally harmful cooking practices. Improved cookstoves greatly reduce the amount of firewood used, which saves money, avoids carbon emissions, reduces deforestation, and improves the health of daily users. The cookstoves that Hamda and others are using from this social impact project are produced by BURN, the largest manufacturer in Africa for modern and improved cookstoves. #socialimpact #improvedcookstoves #climateaction #ClimatePartner Read more about this project: 👉 https://lnkd.in/eAg-23fn 

Singaporean firms are exploring opportunities in Ghana to source carbon credits, prompted by the rise in carbon taxes that took effect in 2024. By purchasing these credits, these companies can reduce their carbon footprint and lower their carbon tax liabilities. In line with Singapore's goal of achieving net-zero emissions by 2050, carbon tax-liable companies can only purchase government-approved, high-quality credits that meet rigorous standards. Ms Molly Brown of Carbon Strategy from Kenya-based company BURN, shared, “We’re exploring opportunities with this Ghana-Singapore bilateral deal, which would allow projects approved by both governments to sell credits to Singapore companies to offset their carbon tax.” BURN hopes to issue credits to Singapore from early 2025. A delegation of 22 firms, led by the Ministry of Trade and Industry (Singapore), recently visited Ghana to explore carbon credit projects, including initiatives focused on cookstove projects and the green mobility solution sector, such as electric vehicles. Additionally, Singapore is in discussions with other countries, such as Vietnam and Bhutan, to expand carbon credit sourcing opportunities.

Kizimkazi Festival is more than just a celebration, it marks a significant step forward in promoting sustainable energy solutions for our communities. Initiated by The Ministry of Energy Tanzania and strongly supported by President Samia Suluhu Hassan , the festival focused on the critical agenda of clean cooking. We BURN showcased innovative clean cooking stoves that are set to revolutionize how we cook in Tanzania. These stoves not only reduce harmful emissions but also cut down on fuel consumption, making them an environmentally friendly and cost-effective solution for households. I am proud to be part of this movement towards a healthier, greener, and more sustainable Tanzania. Together, let's cook clean, live healthy, and protect our planet! 🌱 #KizimkaziFestival #CleanCooking #SustainableEnergy #Tanzania #BurnManufacturing #PresidentSuluhuSamia #MinistryOfEnergy Kaluse KIANGI Ismail Mesaya Elibahati Mollel Anita Ringia

We recently conducted a training session for our sales teams, an ideal opportunity to refresh the knowledge of our product, our sales procedures and improve our performance.  Together we can save forests and lives, by choosing the ECOA CHAR improved cookstove by BURN.  BURN #ECOACHAR #Save #Forests #Save #Lives #ClimateAction #Burn-#DRC-#Lubumbashi.

In Kenya, many households rely on outdated cookstoves and traditional three-stone fires, which have a severe environmental impact. The heavy use of firewood leads to deforestation, land degradation, and increased greenhouse gas emissions. These practices also degrade soil quality and contribute to indoor air pollution, causing serious health issues such as respiratory diseases. To tackle these problems, BURN Manufacturing Co. has rolled out the ‘Jikokoa’ improved cookstove, designed to reduce firewood consumption for rural communities. Our pro auditors, Ranjan Singh and chinthala nikhitha, recently visited Kenya to assess the project's impact. They spoke with local communities to see firsthand how these stoves are making a difference. Want to learn more about our sustainable initiatives?

Over 4 million people die prematurely each year from illnesses related to household air pollution caused by cooking. A recent publication by The Economist highlights that low-income households in Africa are particularly affected due to inadequate funding for clean cooking solutions and gender disparities. BURN is committed to saving lives and forests by distributing affordable, fuel-efficient clean cooking solutions, including electric, biomass, ethanol, and liquid fuel stoves, across ~20 countries in Africa. Through carbon financing, we offer discounts of up to 95% on our clean cooking appliances, reducing carbon emissions by 40% to 65%. BURN’s ECOA induction cooker eliminates carbon emissions entirely, promoting better health and a sustainable environment.  Additionally, our Pay-As-You-Cook payment plan enables low-income households to access these cookstoves, while our cellular-enabled IoT technology allows for real-time monitoring of electricity usage. BURN’s clean cooking initiatives have positively impacted ~24 million lives and prevented ~25 million tonnes of carbon emissions from the atmosphere.
