Figures are running estimates for all 150 stoves, based on cooking measured by in-home sensors. Carbon estimates follow Gold Standard clean-cookstove methodology; the tree figure converts charcoal saved into the wood it would have taken to make. All figures are updated as monitoring continues.

Field implementation

Phase One in Nadowli-Kaleo District

Real communities. Real households. Real data.

150 stoves installed · Monitoring ongoing

Beyond carbon · Expected development outcomes

More than emissions. Better lives.

Sunrise Spectrum is designed to deliver outcomes that reach far beyond carbon: healthier kitchens, less firewood, time back for women, and lower household costs.

4global frameworks behind the modelWHO · Gold Standard · IRIS+ · SDG
Expected

Healthier homes

Less smoke in the kitchen means cleaner air for the women and children who spend the most time near the fire.

SDG 3 · Good health
Expected

Time back for women

Burning less wood means fewer hours spent gathering it, time for income, family, and rest.

SDG 5 · Gender equality
Expected

Protected woodlands

Efficient stoves need less firewood, easing pressure on the forests around Nadowli-Kaleo.

SDG 15 · Life on land
Expected

Household savings

Families who buy fuel spend less on it, keeping more money at home.

SDG 1 · No poverty
Expected

Energy access

Every home gets a modern, efficient way to cook on the fuel it already uses.

SDG 7 · Clean energy
Expected

Climate action

Burning less wood cuts the emissions from every meal cooked.

SDG 13 · Climate action

Expected outcomes are modelled using recognised international frameworks and will be refined through household monitoring and independent verification. The 225 tCO₂e figure is an illustrative planning scenario (1.5 tCO₂e per household a year) and has not been independently verified.

What comes next

From 150 stoves to one million people.

Phase One is the pilot: a small, fully measured start that proves the model before it scales.

Phase One · Delivered150Homes cooking clean today, about 750 people. Every stove measured.
Next · Phase Two · 2027 target30,000Households, about 150,000 people.
Phase Three · 2030 target200,000Households, about 1 million people, with solar and water to follow.

People estimated at five per household. Phase Two and 2030 figures are program targets, not funded commitments.
