Field trial testing of an electricity-producing portable biomass cooking stove in rural Malawi
Abstract
A novel off-grid electricity-producing device has been designed for integration with biomass-fuelled improved cooking stoves commonly in use in the developing world. The device operates on the thermoelectric principle whereby small amounts of electricity can be produced in response to a temperature difference across a thermoelectric generator, or TEG. The energy produced by the integrated generator can be used for direct charging or stored in a …
