•  ISO  IWA  Interim  Guidelines  and  WHO  quality  guidelines    in  place  on  indoor  and  outdoor  emissions,  efficiency  safety  and  cleanliness  agreed  to  by  over  90  representaGves  from  23  countries.  

•  A  dozen  health,  climate,  gender  research  studies  and  tesMng  laboratory  enhancements  iniMated  that  impact  15  countries  around  the  world.  

•  Alliance  has  targeted  6  countries  for  immediate  engagement  –  Kenya,  Uganda,  Bangladesh,  China,  Ghana,  Nigeria,  and  will  conGnue  consultaGons  with  naGonal  stakeholders  in  Ethiopia,  Rwanda,  Vietnam,  Mexico,  Honduras,  Peru,  Indonesia  and  India.  (ConsultaGons/workshops  held  in  18  countries,  16  market  assessments  completed,  6  country  acGon  plans  developed)  

•  $28m  dollars  in  donor  funds  and  up  to  $50m  in  financing  raised  this  past  year.  •  Working  capital  and  innovaMon  funds  announced  to  support  business  enabling  

acGviGes  and  scale  in  producGon  and  adopGon.    •  130%  increase  in  partner  base  from  185  to  420  Alliance  registered  partners  •  Raised  awareness  globally  and  in  priority  countries  through  targeted  and  

impac]ul  engagement  of  Alliance  Ambassadors  Julia  Roberts,  Jose  Andres;  monthly  coverage  in  top  Ger  news  outlets  and  events;    over  100%  increase  in  media  impressions,  50%  increase  newsleaer  subscribers  and  website  visitors.  

•  CreaMon  of  an  online  knowledge  hub  and  communiMes  of  pracMce  –  one  stop  shop  for  cookstoves  building  upon  PCIA  website  and  content  in  parGcular.  

•  Strong  momentum  in  majority  of  priority  countries

DefiniMons  for  Alliance  M&E  in  place  for  “Clean”  and  “Efficient”  Stoves  and  Fuels  for  Phase  I.  

•  Efficient  –  Stoves  that  meet  the  efficiency  requirements  for  Tier  2  or  above  will  be  considered  

‘efficient’    –  Sets  aspiraGonal  target  while  recognizing  that  all  fuel  saved  is  important  –  Many  technologies  have  progressed  to  Tier  2  or  beaer  

 

•  Clean  for  the  environment  –  Stoves  that  meet  the  total  emissions  requirements  for  Tier  3  and  above  will  be  

considered  ‘clean  for  the  environment’  and  will  count  towards  the  100M  target    

•  Clean  for  health  –  Stoves  that  meet  the  indoor  emissions  requirements  for  Tier  3  and  above  will  be  

considered  ‘clean  for  health’.      –  ExisGng  body  of  evidence  suggests  that  to  achieve  powerful  reducGons  in  child  

pneumonia,  clean  stoves  and  fuels  must  have  very  low  indoor  emissions.      

•  The  stoves  that  are  considered  clean  will  be  updated  based  on  future  research  updates.
