Power Practical
| Mission | Power Practical makes the PowerPot - a cooking pot which generates electricity while heating water over any heat source. We want to help people in emerging markets generate their own electricity, and improve indoor air quality by helping families replace their kerosene lanterns with LED lighting systems.Â
The PowerPot works best with a hot, direct heat source - like that provided by many clean cookstoves. We are are interested in exploring a partnership with clean cookstove organizations to develop a product which serves the needs of those living in rural Africa, Asia, and South America and encourages the use of clean cookstoves. |
| Partner Type | Champion |
| Organization Type | Small or Medium Enterprise |
| Organizational Expertise | Marketing |
| Technologies and Fuels | Ethanol/Alcohol, Biogas, Biomass (Ag. Residue, Processed Biomass, etc.), Charcoal, Coal, Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG), Pellets / Briquettes |
| Clean Cooking Activities | We are currently working on a number of product tests in Africa and India, including a long-term project with the Interethnic Health Alliance in rural Uganda to test the PowerPot as a method of generating daily electricity. Â Â |
| Partnership | We are willing to share what we've learned about developing testing/distribution partnerships, regional consumer preferences, and designing a product to fit the needs of users. Â Â
Additionally, we believe that our product will encourage the use/adoption of clean cookstoves because the PowerPot creates the highest energy output when it is used with a hot, focused heat source - like that created by most cookstoves. Even if a formal partnership isn't likely to materialize, we're happy to speak with people/organizations who are interested in what we are doing or feel they could learn from us (or are willing to teach us what you've learned). |
