Who Adopts Improved Fuels and Cookstoves? A Systematic Review (2012, background): “Similarly, by describing clean fuel choice as a movement "up the energy ladder," we do not mean to imply that households use cleaner fuels exclusively (Farsi et al. 2007; Gundimeda and Köhlin 2008; Pine et al. 2011), but rather”
Energy consumption practices of rural households in north China: Basic characteristics and potential for low carbon development (2013, background): “Factors which are proved to be relevant in this context are household size, household composition (of gender or age) and education (Jiang and O’Neill, 2004; Farsi et al., 2007; Gupta and Kohlin, 2006; Heltberg, 2005).”
Determinants of Household Energy Consumption in India (2010, methodology): “measure of energy poverty by Pachauri (2004b) and to model urban fuel choices by Farsi et al. (2007). As households with different socioeconomic status are likely to make differing choices regarding their energy use, the household heterogeneity should be taken into account in models.”
Renewables in the energy transition: Evidence on solar home systems and lighting fuel choice in Kenya (2013, unknown): “3 For this household activity the majority of households uses firewood, charcoal, kerosene or electricity, with the specific mix varying depending on the setting (e.g. Heltberg, 2004; Hosier and Dowd, 1987; Farsi et al., 2007; Njong and Johannes, 2011).”
Modeling household cooking fuel choice: A panel multinomial logit approach (2015, background): “Other studies suggest that tastes and cultural preferences are also factors influencing choice of fuel sources in several developing countries (Arthur et al., 2012; Farsi et al., 2007; Schlag and Zuzarte, 2008).”
Model projections for household energy use in India (2011, background): “This concept is purely empirical, and it has also been criticised for being an oversimplification, because household commonly use multiple fuels in parallel (Masera et al., 2000) and other factors can influence fuel choice as well (Farsi et al., 2007).”
Household Fuel Use in Developing Countries: Review of Theory and Evidence (2018, background): “Farsi et al. (2007) and Lay et al. (2013) observe that the price of kerosene is associated with the expected negative effect on kerosene choice in India and Kenya.”
Wealth, education and cooking-fuel choices among rural households in Pakistan (2019, background): “Education influences the household decision to adopt clean energy [48,50,61,62] through the creation of awareness and increasing the opportunity cost of collection of fuelwood and dung cake for the educated member.”
