Paul H. RileyScore Project Director
1.4 Billion without Electricity
Indian Sub continent Sub Saharan Africa … the World
3 Billion people cook on open fire
The Score-Stove™ Goal
For £20 - £60* it will Generate electricity. Be affordable. Be Smoke free. Reduces emissions.
Can burn Wood or Dung other biomass propane and kerosene.
help 3 billion rural people save 10 Mt Carbon per year
Score intervention in Nepal. 10 and 20We simulated.* 2007 prices

Market Survey (from Score Project)
Typical Nepalese house
Target cost* Between £20 and £60
» In large quantities enables
1.2 B to 60 M people BUT…………………………..
* 2007 prices
Affordability
Cheapest solution is not the most affordable The right packaged solution makes it more attractive.
Stop using kerosene for lighting. Torches etc. mean kerosene use > zero Typical kerosene cost = £15 to £30 pa
Use of LED lights, low maintenance, cost decreasing due to learner curve.
Need easy-to-use way to monitor electricity So that carbon credits can be claimed.
Low cost entry point uses low capacity battery. Many devices (mobile phones) can be charged during cooking
Total Package now aimed at £100, with micro finance
Generating stove goals
Reduce Wood consumption Smoke inhalation
Improve Health
» Reduced smoke» improved understanding of modern medicine» Preservation of prescription drugs (cooling)
Education, by means of electricity» light at night» access to knowledge through mobile phone and computer» Radio and TV
Wealth» Better education» Access to improved farming methods and commodity prices» Business opportunities (sales and maintenance, selling electricity)

Is Score useful?
Simulated Score Stove 35 houses in Nepal and Kenya 10 – 20 W electrical No smoke, less wood
Satisfaction 100% used electricity for lighting
helping education, social 80% used for radio 33% mobile phone charging
» 16% sold electricity
Interest from Developed world KTP with Warrior Stoves (UK)
awarded CHP
Benefit can be gained from as little as 15We, longer term 100We targeted.
Technology options
There is no doubt that a reliable smoke-free cooking stove that generates electricity, reduces fuel consumption and is affordable, will sell in the 100’s millions and give great benefit.
What technologies can meet these requirements? Erikson cycle Stirling engine Steam engine Solar plus clean cooking stove Thermo-Acoustic Thermo-Electric (Thermopile)
Score Status April 2012
Thermo-Acoustic technology chosen Research phase and dissemination completed Additional awards made (totalling £0.5M)
KTS, KTP, centre establishment, Follow on funds. Significant free support (people’s time)
Score Community running since 2008. City University achieved record of 23We for wood burning
TAE. 37W on rig Scientific (instrumented) rigs built
Leicester and Queen Mary University of London 10 demonstrators built, 6 on order Cost reduction plan
One off demonstrators £2500 in UK, £750 with low labour cost, In 100k pa volume £150 RR audit, £60 with manufacturing improvements More research needed to hit £20 target
Social requirements
Key social findings
Smoke repels insects, if it is removed, they return There is a belief that termites will eat their house
Local knowledge is essential when designing Some people like to make illicit alcohol, if the still does not
fit, the stove will be rejected. If there is no-one to fix a broken stove,
it stays broken Respect the village hierarchy Asking the question the right way from the right
person is essential to getting the right answer. Do you want to cook in squatting position or stood up?
An electrical generating stove gives incentive to change to the whole family.
Business requirements
Business Case model
Available on memory stick is an Excel™ model The model shows a business case at 3 levels
The Household Village Store, or shop Country or large region
Pico Hydro Is cheapest solution, where available Falls behind at regional level as coverage is limited
PV solar Needs to operate in monsoon season (reduced light) Needs smoke free stove as well
Assumptions Can be varied to benchmark different scenarios and technologies Are designed to show consistency across different options Feedback from your technology area is welcome

Score Objectives
Contribute to increasing wealth and education and improving health in developing countries by investigating appropriate and affordable novel technology to meet the energy needs of isolated rural communities in developing countries. This technology is designated, SCORE, the Stove for Cooking, Refrigeration and Electricity supply.
Develop a Project Network, comprising academics from both the research team and local universities acting as knowledge hubs in the target countries, charities and non-government organisations, government representative and the local communities themselves. Exchange and focus the scientific, technological and social knowledge required by SCORE. Promote SCORE worldwide and provide a database of end-user requirements and product applications
Plan and create the mechanisms for implementation of SCORE by identifying barriers to implementation and proposing solutions, forming collaborations within the developing countries, developing training strategy and suitable training materials, encouraging the acquisition of matching funding, promoting the building of local manufacturing capacity, and highlighting the wider business opportunities of SCORE in developing countries.
Capture and evaluate the underpinning scientific knowledge of thermoacoustic technologies and devise a new engineering concept combining the thermoacoustic engine, electrical generation and refrigeration. Integrate these in a technology demonstrator.
Study heat transfer processes in combustion and thermoacoustic systems and devise a high-efficiency, integrated combustor/heat exchanger/stove unit, capable of fulfilling its cooking function and providing the energy to the thermoacoustic element. Evaluate its performance by experimentation and integrate it into a technology demonstrator.
Devise through interdisciplinary research an inexpensive method to convert acoustic energy into electricity that could be easily mass produced and evaluate its performance.
Study the manufacturability, cost and the potential of using indigenous materials and local skills and based on the technology demonstrator, to design feasible SCORE prototypes, which could be field tested at selected locations. Build and demonstrate the prototypes in selected rural communities.
Benchmark the design against other technologies and recommend future development paths, research and applications.
