Increasing the Use of Liquefied Petroleum Gas in Cooking in Developing Countries
To reduce household air pollution, improve health outcomes, save nonrenewable biomass, and support local economic development, developing countries are seeking to increase the use of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) as a clean cooking solution. In the absence of targeted subsidies, LPG will not be the solution for the world's poorest people. But many developing countries, especially in Sub- Saharan Africa, are recognizing it as key to increasing access to clean cooking energy and making progress on Sustainable Development Goal 7; they are adopting ambitious targets to scale up its use across the continent.

To reduce household air pollution,
improve health outcomes, save nonrenewable biomass, and
support local economic development, developing countries are
seeking to increase the use of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG)
as a clean cooking solution. In the absence of targeted
subsidies, LPG will not be the solution for the world's
poorest people. But many developing countries, especially in
Sub- Saharan Africa, are recognizing it as key to increasing
access to clean cooking energy and making progress on
Sustainable Development Goal 7; they are adopting ambitious
targets to scale up its use across the continent. |
