CLEANSTOVE
Cleanstove.org is a Geneva-based non-profit pioneering the world’s first solar + battery-powered induction cookstove designed for off-grid communities and reaching some of the 400 million women in need of clean cooking. Unlike traditional biomass stoves, it produces no smoke, no charcoal, and no deforestation, while meeting the WHO’s highest Tier 5 standards. Equipped with IoT and eSIM connectivity, each unit enables real-time monitoring, transparent carbon credit generation, and direct revenue sharing with women users through mobile money. By addressing health, gender equality, climate, and energy access simultaneously, Cleanstove represents a scalable social innovation with global impact potential.
