the most crucial concern is to move cooking fuels from the free-supply and women's services domain and integrate it into the national energy policy. this has to be strengthened through national machinery for the commercialisation of biomass with quality standards and multiple technology options,enabling the households to make their own choice.
the potentials for producing clean energy using biomass as a feedstock would turn biomass into a market commodity, allowing for entrepreneurial opportunities. this transition would enable households to increase their income through the newly emerging market chains, the substitution of inferior by superior fuels and greater efficiency within the household.
