Successful test burns indicate that this pellet feeder when incorporated in our Eco Stove range can eliminate the need of cutting trees for fuel by a 100%.... Pellets are made of pine needles which are considered a forest waste.. it is this kind of innovation, dedication and spirit that may just help change the world ☺️!

2 weeks ago by smokelesscookstove_team As we wait for the monsoons to breathe life into our agri farms across India, we at Smokeless Cookstove Foundation are gearing up to launch the next phase of our work in smokeless chulahs with the Korku tribes of Madhya Pradesh. This highly engaged community has been at fore front with us to reduce smoke from their kitchens by actively adopting our chulahs based on Rocket Stove Technology. Next phase of our work will be focused towards empowering master trainers from amongst the Korkus themselves. #smokelesscookstoverevolution #madhyapradesh #sdgs2030
