BURN

BURN has been selected as one of 5 finalists for Ashden’s 2025 Outstanding Achievement Award! We are proud to be considered for this prestigious award, and crossing our fingers we’ll win. We’re looking forward to the awards ceremony in London in June.

Maureen Wanjiru recalls the day her smoky kerosene stove tipped over and lit a chair on fire. With young children nearby, the danger was too great to ignore. “It was so dangerous for the kids,” she says. “I was terrified they’d get burned – or worse.” That was when she knew she needed a better way to cook. Today Maureen uses BURN’s cellular-enabled IoT ECOA Induction Cooker (iC), which is both safer for her family and less expensive to use – instead of the $2.80 per day she used to spend on cooking fuel, she now uses just $1.16 per day on electricity. On the myECOA app, she can see how much energy her induction cooker uses every time she cooks. “Before I got my ECOA, I didn’t think I could afford to cook with electricity,” she says. “But now that I have used it, I know it’s saving me money.” BURN is rolling out its revolutionary induction cookers across Africa, improving lives and saving money for families like Maureen’s. Our innovative “Pay-as-you-Cook” financing makes the cooker affordable. And thanks to real-time monitoring of electricity usage, BURN is able to generate the highest-integrity MMECD carbon credits. BURN has distributed ~5 million clean cooking appliances, helping reduce 29 million tons of carbon emissions. Join our clean cooking revolution: burnstoves.com

For Batuli Hassan, a small restaurant owner outside Nairobi, cooking with a smoky and inefficient traditional stove was expensive – fuel would cost her more than $3 per day. But since Batuli switched to BURN’s cellular-enabled IoT ECOA Induction Cooker (iC), it has transformed her business. Today she spends just $1.50 daily on electricity, and with the smoke gone, she is serving nearly twice as many customers. BURN is rolling out its revolutionary induction cookers across Africa, improving lives and saving money for small business owners like Batuli. Our innovative “Pay-as-you-Cook” financing makes these cookers affordable. And thanks to real-time monitoring of electricity usage, they allow BURN to generate the highest-integrity MMECD carbon credits.

For years, Mercy Waigwa spent at least three hours a day cooking for her family using an inefficient traditional stove. It was both exhausting and expensive, costing her $11 per week on cooking fuel. Thanks to BURN's cellular-enabled IoT ECOA Induction Cooker (iC), Mercy’s cooking time has been cut by half, and she spends just $4.60 a week on electricity. Because her induction cooker is so easy to use, it gives her more time to spend with her family. "Now I can help my children do their homework," she says. BURN is rolling out its revolutionary induction cookers across Africa, improving lives and saving money for families like Mercy’s. Our innovative “Pay-as-you-Cook” financing makes these cookers affordable. And thanks to real-time monitoring of electricity usage, they allow BURN to generate the highest-integrity MMECD carbon credits.

As the owner of a small but busy restaurant outside Nairobi, Anne Omellah never imagined she could afford to cook with electricity. “I thought it was too expensive, because no one around here uses electricity”, she explains. “No one thought they could afford to use it, especially for a restaurant.” That was before Anne began cooking with BURN’s cellular-enabled IoT ECOA Induction Cooker (iC). Thanks to real-time monitoring of electricity usage, Anne can check her myECOA app whenever she wants to see exactly how much power her stove has used. “My fuel expenses have gone down”, she says. “I used to spend $7.75 per day, but now I spend only half that. Since I started using the app and tracking my expenditure, I can budget the extra cash and profits for something else.” BURN is rolling out its revolutionary induction cookers across Africa, improving lives and saving money for small business owners like Anne. Our innovative “Pay-as-you-Cook” financing makes the cooker affordable. And the real-time monitoring that benefits Anne is also good for the planet, allowing BURN to generate the highest-integrity MMECD carbon credits. BURN has distributed ~5 million clean cooking appliances, helping reduce 29 million tons of carbon emissions. Join our clean cooking revolution: burnstoves.com
