Dear Crispin,
Thanks, I found on the FAO website only data on the global wood charcoal production for 2011: http://faostat.fao.org/DesktopDefault.aspx?PageID=626&lang=en#ancor 48 631 907.00 tons were produced globally this year. I am not sure we can extrapolate the number of users from that.

It has many reports on fuels and uses, country by country in many cases. Grant Ballard-Tremeer may have some ideas too. Regards Crispin From: Stoves [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Xavier Brandao Sent: Monday, April 15, 2013 7:55 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Stoves] Charcoal users in the world Hello stovers, I have had and am still having trouble finding statistics on the number of people using charcoal for cooking in the world. For some reason, it is very hard to find data about that. I couldn't find anything in the GACC data or in the Practical Action Energy Outlook. There are statistics on people using "solid fuels" or "traditional biomass", but nothing specifically on charcoal. Maybe it will appear in the "Data and statistics" section of the GACC website, which has been "Coming soon" for quite some time already. Maybe there's more info in the IEA World Energy Outlook? Does anyone know where to find such info?
