Tenders Are Invited For Training Of Women And Youth On Energy Efficient Stoves Production

Tenders are invited for Training of Women and Youth on Energy Efficient Stoves Production in Nzara County Western Equatoria State, Republic of South Sudan. Project Title: Natural resources for enhanced agricultural production and nutrition (NRM for SAProN) Activity: Training on Energy Efficient Stoves Production for Empowering Women and Youths in Yabua, Nzara County of Western Equatoria. Client: Catholic Organization for Relief and Development Aid (CORDAID The company will be responsible for conducting a comprehensive training program covering the following key areas: A. Energy-Efficient Stoves Production Training 1. Introduction to Energy-Efficient Stoves Benefits of improved stoves (fuel efficiency, reduced smoke emissions, cost-effectiveness). Types of energy-saving stoves (mud stoves, rocket stoves, ceramic liners). 2. Materials and Tools for Stove Production Identification of locally available raw materials (clay, metal sheets, sawdust, sand, etc.). Tools required for stove construction and maintenance. 3. Stove Design and Construction: Step-by-step hands-on demonstration of stove production. Proper air circulation and combustion chamber design for efficiency. 4. Installation and Maintenance: Proper positioning and installation of stoves in households. Best practices for stove durability and repair. 5. Entrepreneurship and Market Linkages Business opportunities in energy-saving stove production. Pricing, marketing strategies, and access to financing. B. Sustainable use of renewable and non- renewable energy resources 1. Energy efficient use practices or technologies Impact of traditional charcoal-making on deforestation and climate change. Alternative sources of charcoal or energy sources (agricultural waste, bamboo, coconut husks). 2. Selection of Raw Materials Identification of fast-growing trees and sustainable biomass sources. Use of agricultural residues (e.g., maize cobs, rice husks) for charcoal production. 3. Carbonization Techniques Traditional vs. improved carbonization methods. Use of efficient kilns (earth mound, drum kiln, brick kiln) to reduce emissions. 4. Briquette Production from Waste Materials Introduction to charcoal briquettes as an alternative to wood charcoal. Hands-on demonstration of briquette production (mixing, moulding, drying). 5. Packaging and Marketing Strategies Branding and packaging for better marketability.
