The aim of the field-based assessments was to determine the effect of improved cooking stoves on fuel consumption in households in Uganda
The study aimed at investigating end-user patterns of adoption of off-grid solar energy products in one district, each in the central and the eastern regions of Uganda. The study aimed at exploring solar energy product adoption patterns for off-grid rural users and if flexible consumer financing methods can help enable adoption of higher levels of access
Under this programme, CIRCODU is collaborated with Makerere University and University of Dar Es Salaam to implement a research project on Reducing human exposure to combustion-derived pollutants in urban areas of the Lake Victoria watershed.
Activities involved in the survey included Household Surveys, Focus Group Discussion, Key Informant Interviews Literature Review and Market Surveys
CIRCODU conducted a mid-term review which aimed at assessing the progress of the projects towards achieving the targets for the Renewable Energy Projects, and providing recommendations on how to improve performance and strengthen results, outcomes and impact.
In partnership with TECHNOLOGY CONSULTANTS, CIRCODU was sub-contracted to undertake a study that would facilitate in coming up with a detailed design of the small-scale water storage and detention facilities, detailed plan for silt traps drainage, flood control and maximum water recuperation. The project was commissioned by the Government of Uganda through Ministry of Water and Environment in partnership with UNDP
The assignment aimed at establishing information about the existing state of the districts on creation of an enabling environment to increase access to clean energy alternatives and there after facilitate a process to guide the Local Governments on district level energy planning in 19 selected districts of Albertine Graben.
The World Bank together with Decision Lab and CIRCODU carried on a behavioral diagnostic for the Distribution Challenge Fund (DCF) project, with the aim of better understanding how consumers perceive clean cookstoves in Uganda.
With the grant, CIRCODU procured additional testing equipment including SUMS, Calibration gases and Moisture meters. and drafted a quality assurance and quality control plan.
The activities involved included:
Air pollution monitoring (personal exposure to pollutants from kerosene lamps)
Visual acuity testing
Household survey
The study aimed at addressing the need to increase market penetration of clean stoves with the end goal of reducing household air pollution and the associated disease burden as well as to reduce non-renewable biomass fuel consumption.
We conducted a baseline survey and KPTs in households in Kasese district to find out the type of cookstoves and fuels used, cooking practices and the social economic indicators of the target population and the average fuel savings before and after the adoption of clean cookstoves.
The program was to build the ACCES platform’s QATS program, and design technical support packages for manufacturers and testing centers.
The aim of the field-based assessments was to determine the effect of improved cooking stoves on fuel consumption in households in Uganda
The activities included Quarterly Kitchen Surveys, annual usage surveys, periodic kitchen performance tests in households and institutions across the country, Periodic laboratory tests – Water Boiling Tests and Durability Tests.
The aim of the pilot study was to test innovative marketing and distribution approaches of improved charcoal stoves and solar lamps in households in Kampala.
The aim of the field-based assessments was to determine the effect of improved cooking stoves on fuel consumption in households in Uganda.
The aim to assess customer satisfaction in the use of solar home system.
The objective of the study was to provide a solid basis for SNV’s market development, relationship brokering, capacity building of key stakeholders in the value chain and further sharpening all planned interventions.
