Webinar: From Research to Action: Insights from Recent UNIDO and CECC Publications

10 November 2025 · Bilge Seneroglu

Access to clean cooking remains one of the most persistent development challenges. To accelerate the transition away from traditional biomass and inefficient fuels, UNIDO and the Council on Ethanol Clean Cooking (CECC) have recently published a series of publications exploring innovative pathways to scale modern clean cooking solutions.

These publications collectively examine opportunities for industrial integration, technology advancement, and financial innovation. Carbon Credits for Ethanol Cooking: A Guide for Carbon Credit Project Developers offers a practical guide on leveraging carbon finance to scale clean cooking projects and foster investment readiness. The UNIDO Technology Brief – Bioethanol in the Mix for Clean Cooking assesses the comparative performance and feasibility of emerging clean cooking fuels and technologies. Finally, Unleashing the Power of the Sugar Industry: Potential of the Sugar Industry for Universal Energy Access in Developing Countries identifies the untapped potential of the sugar sector in Africa to contribute to clean energy access through product diversification and waste valorization.

Together, these studies provide actionable insights for policymakers, investors, and practitioners to advance inclusive, low-carbon, and locally anchored clean cooking markets.

Save the date: The webinar will take place on November 25th at 13:00 CEST.
