The LPG project from India uses a very well-established technology, familiar from any backyard grill in the US, but with a new economic framework to increase access. One of the greatest obstacles to the use of liquefied petroleum gas by poor households in India is the upfront costs for a stove, a regulator, a gas cylinder and fuel. The LPG scheme takes regular contributions from members of a community and pools them to pay those costs for a few households every month. In the pilot project, all 60 households were connected over a period of five to six months.
印度的液化石油气(LPG)项目利用了一种非常成熟的技术,这种技术常见于美国家庭的后院烧烤架活动中,但印度加上了一个新的经济框架,以扩大该技术的适用范围。阻止印度贫困家庭使用液化石油气的最大障碍之一是前期投入——要购买气化炉、调节器、气瓶和燃料。液化石油气项目得到了某社区居民的定期捐款,项目组织者将捐款集中起来,每个月解决几家的前期投入。在试运行中,参与项目的总共60个家庭,在5至6个月的时间里全都用上了液化天然气。
Two influential cities, Tokyo and Houston, have taken very different approaches in their attempts to achieve greater energy efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
