SOLVE-Nepal in partnership with GIZ/REEEP project implemented “Training and orientation on Improved Cooking Stove and entrepreneurship skill Development Project” which focused to support AEPC’s Provincial/ Local Level in developing tools and standard processes for the access of the RE baseline, energy baseline, energy planning and undertake RE resource mapping. The main objective of this project was to create regularity, institutional and private–sector conditions for disseminating renewable energy and improving Energy Efficiency (EE) in Nepal. SOLVE-Nepal under this project provided TOT to 90 stove masters from 30 Rural Municipalities of Koshi Province in collaboration with respective local governments which ultimately was significant for promotion of improved cooking stoves.
