July Kicks-Off with Electric News

We are now officially testing the cooking of beans on a daily basis at a government aided school that prepares daily meals for 800 primary students.

This school has been using traditional 3-stone fire places in the past. We have introduced two institutional improved cook stoves to cater for some of their meals.

Today we have all 3 technologies cooking side by side - traditional , improved, and electric - as it allows us to do real time comparisons, Kitchen Performance Tests and compare the fuel consumption between many indicators, on all the three cooking methods.

The next 6 months will be a great learning opportunity for Simoshi and the school, as we prepare all participating 120 schools to a future smooth transition to electric clean cooking.

We will be sharing a lot of data, findings and experiences from the cooks on the challenges and opportunities faced during such testing period, so follow this space closely!
