Stovers, If you and your organization area considering applying for the GACC grants, and if you might utilize some additional persons on your proposal about gasifier stoves, please contact me directly (off list). I and some of my close co-workers on gasifier stoves around the world might fill an important niche on your team, including some additional gasifier stove designs with great potential, and some valuable contacts with people with field studies.

Date: Thu, Aug 9, 2012 at 1:40 PM Subject: Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves Request for Applications - Field Studies To: Dear Colleagues, The Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves has released a Request for Applications (RFA) for Field Studies to Evaluate Performance, Use and Adoption of Clean Cookstoves and Fuels. This Request for Applications (RFA) will support field studies to evaluate cookstove use and adoption, with a focus on technologies with promising laboratory performance but limited field data, including but not limited to gasifier and forced-draft cookstoves and liquid and gas fuels. Field data for cookstoves that also provide heat and for solar cookers have also been identified as a knowledge gap and will be supported under this RFA. Proposals should include activities to improve definitions, methods, and metrics for assessing cookstove and fuel adoption, usage, and acceptance that can be applied broadly. Additional goals for the field studies include improving understanding of kitchen management and “stove stacking” and improving the correspondence between lab and field studies. Under RFA 12-4, at least $400,000 will be available to support field studies. The Alliance expects to fund 2 - 3 ten-month studies, up to $200,000 per study, dependent on the scope and scale of the proposals. The funded studies will span a range of geographical regions and must focus on potential priority countries and regions for the Alliance (including Bangladesh, China, Ethiopia, Ghana, Guatemala, India, Indonesia, Kenya, Mexico, Nigeria, Peru, Rwanda, Tanzania, Uganda, and Vietnam). Studies in other Andean countries in South America will also be considered. The Alliance may fund additional studies based on the quality of proposals and availability of additional funding. These studies should be conducted in collaboration with Alliance partners actively involved in the implementation process. Opportunities for cost sharing and leveraging equipment and funds are actively encouraged.
The deadline for submission of letters of intent is August 26, 2012 11:59 pm EDT. The deadline for submission of full proposals is September 23, 2012 11:59 pm EDT. To download the RFA and application forms, please visit http://www.cleancookstoves.org/funding-opportunities/ Please help us to publicize this RFA by cross-posting / sharing with colleagues! Best regards, Ranyee
