Hello All,
I live in puNe and wish to bring to your notice a highly efficient chullah that is available for deployment. We have currently run one batch of 100 chullahs. They have been accepted well. Ofcourse it took long for us to exhaust the stock as it was introduced in the market around 2018 the same time when Ujwala scheme had hit the market. In the last six months efforts of marketing has increased and luckily we have good response.
We have now have new manufacturer for us.
Ideally the progression of reaching the chullah concept is website>videos on the site>seeing a demo>asking for a trial piece> if convinced buy one> think and see around where it be used and hence spread the word about it. Our hope is that we find atleast 2 to 5 clusters of communities in next 6 months who till date rely on wood as primary source of cooking. At the centre we envision an anchor person/team who understands the value of the chullah and are willing to help and monitor its proper use.
Panval Rocket Stove (PRS-v5). uses only 25% wood ( small dry twigs ) no tree hacking required! The unique design to use only fallen dry twigs is a boon (come true) for the chullah users and the trees around such them.

PS: There is a spectrum of possible users like
- Those who are live in villages/vicinity of forest land and forced to use chullah even today for their daily cooking. They should find this a boon
- City dwellers who are environment enthusiast and are willing to invest in understanding the chullah should find it useful in their balcony/terrace.
- Campers who like to go in the wild can carry this chullah wt 5.5Kg size 17"x6"x6". It can sit in a corner in the car. Fuel is just handful twigs around the place of camping.
- People who own farm houses/second homes can which usually are in remote area can find this chullah boon for the care taker family!
- Labour force in cities return to their homes once in 6 months/1 year. They can carry one to their home for their mother/sister/wife who mostly would be using chullahs only
- Every forrest reserve has anti poaching camps. This is typically a 2 BHK home on a plot of 1K around the periphery of the reserve. 4 forest dept folks stay there 24x7. They mostly use a 3 stone chullah. Convincing the main forrest officer about the efficacy of this chullah should help the environment for sure.
