On LPG usage in rural Vietnamese households

Author

Listed:
  • Vahlne, Niklas

Abstract

Cooking with solid biomass fuels, a common practice in the developing world, is associated with numerous problems. Hence policy makers wish to facilitate households to switch to more modern fuels. To better understand the potential for policy interventions, an enhanced understanding of household fuel choices and the process of fuel switching is paramount.
