1. The New Ethanol Household Fuel Economy Boma Simeon Anga Chairman, NEPAD PAN AFRICAN CASSAVA INITIATIVE.

2. Why the use of ethanol for Cooking? The rationale: The costs of fossil fuels are rising and so are the budgets of most African Countries who spend an average of 55-60% of national budget on importation and subsidization of liquid petroleum fuels for their domestic economies. African countries cannot cope with this rising cost. Most African economies may experience stagnation & worsen the poverty trap except alternative bio fuels are produced to substitute the unsustainable imports of petroleum. This project when successfully implemented will put the tools in the hands of African investors & Governments for establishing efficient low cost fuel ethanol projects targeting the replacement of paraffin and gasoline.

3. The retail fuel market in Nigeria has been plagued by high prices, scarcities, and quality problems. Purchasing fuels from abroad creates a FOREX problem. Long lines await delivery of kerosene in a fuel station. Replacing kerosene with ethanol is financially more rewarding than replacing gasoline, since Nigeria pays more for kerosene.

4. Daily Spot Markets Data The data below reflects Market Fundamentals as at Tuesday 26th January, 2010

5. The Main Sources of cooking Fuel in Nigeria Source: FOS: Nigeria Poverty Profile 2004

6. Traditional fuels for sale in Nigeria. The city’s cash economy pulls in these biofuels, but they are no longer cheap.

7. Two examples of dirty, smoky fuels in common use: Animal dung Tif tif for sale. This fuel is a blend of charcoal dust and clay.

8. PM10 are small soot particles 10 μ in size or less. PM10 indicates that even smaller, more dangerous particles are present. Our tests show that alcohol fuels used in the CleanCook stove are the cleanest and safest alternative for the 80%+ of homes in the developing world that do not have adequate or reliable access to electricity.

9. Sub Sahara Africa homes suffer from extreme energy poverty.

10. Mother and child in a smoky Kitchen cooking in Nigeria Extremely high particulate matter and CO. kills 360,000 women and children every year in Sub Saharan Africa (WHO 2006)

11. Smoke in the Home This region of Africa also suffers from high levels of indoor air pollution.

12. WHY USE ETHANOL FOR COOKING? Blackened pots, walls and ceiling Health: eye irritation, coughing Long distances for gathering 6-8 hours or more Rape, beatings, intimidation, threat of murder, theft Falls and injuries, dehydration, injuries to back, legs and kidneys Lack of wood Lack of time for education, income generation, or access to services

13. What is the potential for ethanol to be an economical household fuel? The household market is different from the vehicle fuel market and needs to be treated somewhat differently. The vehicle fuel market is inherently inflationary for alcohol fuels, because they are much cheaper to manufacture than petroleum fuels yet can be sold at or near the price of petroleum fuels when used as an additive or substitute. The alcohol fuels do not need to be subsidized for the household fuel market, but they do need to be “sheltered” from the vehicle fuel market by supportive government policy. It should be reiterated that because alcohols are cheap to manufacture, no subsidies are needed.

14. Imagine a soon coming Africa where… Ethanol as fuel for stoves, generators cars, buses and lamps will be available everywhere (as telephone handsets now are, yet much cheaper… Our cars will run on GASOHOL: A cleaner fuel made from a blend of Ethanol & Gasoline:

15. The Cassakero VISION “To provide Nigeria with a locally made agro-based bio-fuel for household use that will be available, affordable and accessible, creating sustainable new jobs and reducing poverty while enhancing food and energy security in the nation. “

16. PROJECT MISSION “To establish a dedicated national bio-ethanol output of 4 million liters per day produced from integrated small scale-bio ethanol refineries to provide the household fuel requirement of 4 million families in four years (2010-2014).”

18. Bio-Ethanol market opportunity in Nigeria Market Value:3.08 Billion dollars Annual Projected growth rate: 5%

20. The Cassakero Cooking fuel Cassakero is safe and easy to handle and user friendly. it is less volatile and as a bio-fuel, it is easily absorbed into the environment with no known health hazard. The ethanol will be denatured with Bitrex, a bitter substance to render it undrinkable, and a colorant to give it a distinguishing color.

21. In 2002, kerosene, which was subsidized, cost 32¢ per liter. Kerosene is priced in the “official” market today at about 80¢ and in the black market at well over $1.00 per liter. It is often adulterated with gasoline since gasoline is now cheaper.

22. Mrs. Ejime Nwanze of Umunze Quaters in Ogwashi-Uku, Delta State. To her right is a cylindrical Chinese kerosene stove, which she purchased at the price of N3,800 (US$ 32.00) in June 2006. Note the thick layer of soot all around the kettle placed on the kerosene stove. She said the kerosene stove started developing fault just 7 months after its first use. She said she abandoned the kerosene stove for the CleanCook stove when she received it for the pilot study.

23. Surprised by how quickly the CleanCook stove warmed her kettle of water, Mrs. Agnes Gilala of Warri study location exclaims with regard to the speed it took the water to boil. Mrs. Lucy Obiamah lights the CleanCook after receiving the Surveyor Helen in Ibusa, a sub-location under Asaba pilot location.
