Kenya-based company Ecobora specialises in providing clean cooking solutions to institutions and schools. With a track record of supplying and installing briquette cooking and water heating boilers in 112 rural schools and 16 food processing industries, Ecobora has moved to a focus on advancing solar-powered cooking technologies. With support from PREO, the company is manufacturing and installing solar-powered cooking boilers, offering a “Cooking-as-a-Service” model coupled with Pay-As-You-Go (PAYGO) solutions for schools. This approach presents a sustainable alternative to traditional firewood cooking methods. To further enhance operations, smart meters and temperature sensors will be integrated to improve efficiency and monitoring capabilities. In addition, Ecobora also sees potential in unlocking carbon financing as a secondary revenue stream, highlighting the company’s commitment to environmental sustainability and financial viability.
