Roughly 2.4 billion individuals lack access to clean cooking alternatives, a circumstance associated with substantial health risks, particularly for women and children, due to the reliance on inefficient and polluting fuels and technologies. These hazards manifest in diseases and premature mortality.

Furthermore, this reliance contributes to the emission of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. The present technologies and fuel sources are inadequate, as not all households possess access to electric cooking options, and natural gas, while effective, comes with high costs and less reliability.

Additionally, the use of firewood, driven by the need for fuel, often leads to deforestation. This deforestation has a dual negative effect: it releases carbon stored in trees into the atmosphere and impairs the Earth's capacity to absorb CO2 through photosynthesis, thereby exacerbating its climate impact.

Gender inequality is also prevalent in numerous regions, where women and girls are disproportionately burdened with the primary responsibility of gathering firewood and managing cooking tasks. Tragically, they frequently endure the associated health risks inherent to traditional cooking methods.

Around the world, multiple projects are underway to establish environments for producing green hydrogen. As this production expands, it becomes more accessible and cost-effective.

The process of obtaining green hydrogen involves several steps. It starts with hydrogen production using renewable energy sources through electrolysis, a process that splits water into hydrogen and oxygen using electricity generated from solar, wind, or hydropower.
‍
A production overview:
‍Production: Green hydrogen is produced using renewable energy sources, through a process called electrolysis. During electrolysis, electricity generated from renewable sources like solar, wind, or hydropower is used to split water (H2O) into hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2). This process is environmentally friendly because it does not produce greenhouse gas emissions.
‍Infrastructure: You'll need infrastructure for water supply, powertransmission, and hydrogen storage. This includes water sources, electricityconnections, and hydrogen storage tanks or facilities.
‍Storage: Green hydrogen must be stored safely and efficiently. Hydrogencan be stored in gaseous or liquid form, depending on the application. Thereare several storage options available.
‍Transportation: Once produced and stored, green hydrogen needs to betransported to where it will be used. Transportation methods can includepipelines, tanker trucks, or even hydrogen carriers like ammonia for longerdistances.
‍Utilisation: Finally, green hydrogen is used to power the HyCooker.However, green hydrogen usage doesn’t stop there. There are numerous applications that can utilize green hydrogen. Our team of experts can expand on this.

Ultimately, green hydrogen powers the HyCooker and offers a wide array of other applications. Our expert team can provide detailed insights into these applications. However, it's important to note that the availability and cost-effectiveness of green hydrogen can vary based on location, access to renewable resources, and local regulations. We offer support through feasibility studies and collaboration with stakeholders to ensure a successful green hydrogen production venture.

Additionally, small-scale local grids or off-grid solutions can be tailored to meet specific regional, or community needs and provide access to green hydrogen.

The aim is to extend the distribution and storage infrastructure to reach local residential areas, enabling households and communities to access green hydrogen.
