Solution Overview & Benefits

Prime Cookstoves provide high-efficiency, ultra clean biomass cookstoves. These stoves are top-lit updraft (TLUD) biomass stoves that use a preheating, counter-flow and co-firing burning mechanism. Suitable biomass fuels include fuelwood, wood chips, briquettes, coconut husk and corncobs.

Depending on fuel loading, the Prime Fuelwood cookstove can burn for 0.5-2 hours. The cookstove's size makes it suitable for household use with 4-6 members.
