What Gets Us Going
3 Billion people need a clean burning stove. Lets
work
together to make a difference!
We want to deliver clean and efficient cook stoves to people
that need them. StoveTec doesn’t need patents, or other
funky protection for our products. The Aprovecho Research
Center is open source to help the
3 billion people cooking on
an open fire,
and to reduce the number of people that die
every year from breathing smoke. Mother Nature needs a lot
of help right now to reduce global warming, ill health and
deforestation.
Why We’re Here
Delivering clean and efficient stove to the world
cooks won’t happen on it’s own.
StoveTec is brought to you by Aprovecho Research Center,
same people who have worked tirelessly for the last 30
years to design and build the world’s new standard for
biomass stoves, and who have completed over 100 projects
in 60 countries.
StoveTec is a not-just-for-profit entity that acts as the
technology transfer recipient for the Aprovecho Research
Center (ARC). We are a for-profit owned by a non-profit, with
going back to ARC.
People Love our Stoves!
Cooks and testers alike can’t get over how cool this
little stove really is.
From the cooks in Uganda, to Price Charles in the UK,
people love our stoves! The
Uganda Controlled Cooking
Test
conducted by Erika Tyler of Columbia University
showed a 95% preference for our rocket stove. Princes
Charles, who has been studying stoves for 30 years,
presented Dean Still and Mr. Shen with the
Ashden Energy
Champion Award
for designing and manufacturing this clean
and efficient stove. The list goes on to include the UK’s
Guardian Newspaper that listed the stove as
one of the ten
best ways to save the world.
