(Bioenergy International) The first-ever high-level Summit focused on providing clean cooking access to the more than 1 billion people in Africa who currently lack it has delivered a breakthrough financial commitment for addressing one of the world’s most persistent and deep-seated inequalities.
Over 1,000 delegates from almost 60 countries gathered in Paris, France, on May 14, 2024, for the one-day Summit on Clean Cooking in Africa.
French President Emmanuel Macron of France hosted a special session for heads of state and other leaders at the Elysée Palace on the occasion of the Summit.
Improving access to clean cooking is about improving health outcomes, reducing emissions, and creating opportunities for economic growth. With today’s Summit, we have mobilized much-needed support and built a diverse partnership that together can make a real difference. Norway is a steadfast supporter of clean cooking, and I was pleased to announce today that we are committed to investing approximately US$50 million in this important cause, said Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre.
Improve health and livelihoods
Lack of access to clean cooking affects over 2 billion people worldwide. Over half are in Africa, typically cooking over open fires and basic stoves.
Using charcoal, wood, agricultural waste, and animal dung as fuel, they inhale harmful toxic fumes and smoke with dire consequences for health.
It is the second leading cause of premature death in Africa. Women and children account for most of the lives lost, the vast majority of them in sub-Saharan Africa.
Opportunities for education, employment, and independence are limited because women instead spend hours each day foraging for rudimentary fuels.
Ensuring clean cooking access for all in Africa needs adequate, affordable, and sustainable financing for appropriate solutions and innovations; adequate global attention; and smart policies and partnerships. Successfully advancing the clean cooking agenda in Africa would contribute to protecting the environment, climate, and health, and ensuring gender equality. This Summit underscores our commitment to advancing this agenda and providing a framework towards universal adoption of clean cooking fuels and technologies across the continent, said President Samia Suluhu Hassan of Tanzania.
Enabling tools available
The tools for enabling clean cooking access are readily available and affordable – and can have a profoundly positive impact on the lives of people across Africa and beyond.
However, progress in many African countries has significantly lagged what has been seen in other regions in recent decades.
The Summit on Clean Cooking in Africa is the first time that such a large amount has been dedicated to clean cooking access at a single gathering, with the potential to make 2024 a turning point on an issue that has been overlooked for too long.
The pledges made at the Summit come on top of other recent commitments including that of the African Development Bank (AfDB) at COP28 in Dubai, UAE.
At the African Development Bank, we are delighted to play a leading role alongside the International Energy Agency, Tanzania, and Norway, to definitively tackle lack of access to clean cooking, that affects a billion people in Africa. In concert with countries, we will increase our financing for clean cooking to US$200 million annually over the next decade, while also scaling up the provision of blended finance for clean cooking through the Sustainable Energy Fund for Africa (SEFA), said Akinwumi A. Adesina, President African Development Bank Group.
Maintaining momentum
Following the summit, the IEA will employ a “double-lock system” to ensure that the momentum behind clean cooking does not slow in the coming months and years. The agency will focus efforts on two areas.
First, by using effective methods to ensure that pledges and commitments are fulfilled, tracking them carefully to make sure the money is spent in a timely manner and reaches those in need.
Second, the IEA will continue to play a convening role to engage more willing partners and generate new funds to help meet the US$4 billion a year in capital investments required between now and 2030.
Reaching this level of funding would enable the world to deploy the stoves and fuel delivery infrastructure needed to reach universal access to clean cooking in sub-Saharan Africa.
Success stories from other regions demonstrate that rapid and transformative progress on clean cooking is achievable.
Similar innovative approaches are now required in countries across Africa. Leaders at the Summit all highlighted that now is the time to show endeavour by fixing this problem once and for all.
At the Summit, more than 100 countries, international institutions, companies, and civil society organizations also endorsed The Clean Cooking Declaration, pledging to make the issue a priority and enhancing efforts toward achieving universal access for all.
This Summit has delivered an emphatic commitment to an issue that has been ignored by too many people, for too long. We still have a long way to go but the outcome of this Summit, US$2.2 billion committed, can help support fundamental rights such as health, gender equality, and education while also reducing emissions and restoring forests. And the commitments announced today go beyond the money alone – they set out concrete steps on how governments, institutions, and the private sector can work together to solve the clean cooking challenge this decade. I’m proud of the IEA’s decades of work on this issue and of its leadership in initiating this groundbreaking Summit. Going forward, we will rigorously track the commitments announced today to make sure they’re met on time and in full – and continue to do our utmost to bring greater resources and attention to this critical issue, said Dr Fatih Birol, Executive Director of IEA.

Excerpt from Associated Press: Participants at a global conference on how to reduce the world’s energy use are calling for universal access to clean cooking through government incentives and subsidies to unlock more private sector funds.
The Paris-based International Energy Agency’s 9th annual conference on energy efficiency brings together ministers, CEOs and thought leaders from around the world to discuss how to speed up progress on energy efficiency, which experts say can drastically reduce planet-warming emissions. On the agenda is how to deliver affordable clean cooking, which involves using electricity, solar and other solutions instead of more polluting fuels like charcoal, wood and kerosene.
“There are many practical barriers to energy efficiency, and of course the barrier of the need for investment up front,” said Brian Motherway, head of IEA’s office of energy efficiency and inclusive transitions. “The key to unlocking efficiency is in the hands of governments – strong, co-ordinated policies by governments will unlock finance and enable business and consumers to take the actions required to lower their bills.”
This year’s conference, which is being held in Nairobi, focuses on accelerating progress towards doubling energy efficiency progress by 2030 as agreed by governments at COP28.
Rashid Abdallah, the executive director of the Africa Energy Commission, said at a panel discussion on Tuesday that “clean cooking should be part of any energy policy” or socio-economic development plan.
Globally, around 2.3 billion people cook using solid biomass fuel – such as wood and charcoal – and kerosene. In Asia, 1.2 billion people lack access to clean cooking facilities, and in Africa, more than 900 million people use biomass as their primary energy source. These energy sources release harmful toxic fumes and smoke that leads to illnesses and deaths and contribute to climate change.
There’s also evidence that household air pollution from cooking with dirty fuels can lead to diabetes and adverse pregnancy outcomes such as stillbirth and low birth weight, said Matt Shupler, a postdoctoral fellow at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. “There are many known health effects,″ he said.
Cleaner alternatives include electric and ethanol cookers that emit fewer pollutants.
High prices are an obstacle to making clean, green and affordable cooking available to all, but positive trends are emerging in the sector, with investment in clean cooking enterprises surging to an all-time high of $215 million in 2022 and the number of clean cooking enterprises with revenue exceeding $1 million growing to 11 that same year, according to a report by the Clean Cooking Alliance.
Despite this progress, a huge capital gap remains in achieving universal access to clean cooking by 2030, as IEA estimates that $8 billion is needed annually as investment in clean cooking stoves, equipment and infrastructure to meet the goal.
One of the countries that has significantly scaled up affordable, high quality, clean cooking is Indonesia. In 2007 the government started implementing a program to transition its primary cooking fuel from kerosene to LPG. The proportion of the population with access to clean cooking doubled from 40% in 2010 to 80% in 2018. Regulation and incentives have been key to the program’s success, said Dadan Kusdiana, Secretary-General of the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources Energy and Mineral Resources.
“What we do is to provide the energy with affordability,” he said at a panel discussion on Tuesday. “They need this kind of energy, but they can’t afford it at the commercial price.” READ MORE
