Innovation fund grantee ATEC. ATEC provides PAYG eCook stoves for the very lowest income customers, with GSM tracking of climate impact. ATEC developed an electromagnetic induction stove that provides clean cooking, available on a PAYG basis, making them affordable even for those on the lowest incomes. The GSMA worked with ATEC in March 2022 to develop and launch an Android mobile app integrated with eCook stoves. The app shows users real-time electricity usage data, payment status and any carbon offset data, enabling them to pay as little as $5 a month. The stove will also automatically mint Gold Standard-certified carbon credits. These credits can be sold to ATEC\u2019s international corporate partners and on carbon markets. The benefits from the sale of carbon credits will be shared with users by subsidising their monthly instalments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI can pay for the stove easily with the app. It did not require me to have any bank account to buy this product in pay as you go system. The stove cooks fast and the cost has been dropped to half since I no longer need to buy expensive LPG for cooking\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
