The pilot found that while the technology is feasible and accepted by users, its impact was limited by battery constraints, competing energy needs, and gendered dynamics regarding energy control.

What’s health got to do with it?
This research paper, published by the Stockholm Environment Institute, synthesizes two studies commissioned by SNV Netherlands Development Organisation to evaluate the impact of health-focused marketing messages on the purchase of clean cookstoves in Cambodia and Kenya. Both studies concluded that health messaging had a minimal effect on stove purchases, with price and functional benefits remaining the primary drivers of adoption.
