Intern, Nepal Program, Clean Cooking Alliance
4 weeks ago
Position Overview
The Clean Cooking Alliance (CCA) works with a global network of partners to build a dynamic and financially sustainable industry that makes clean cooking accessible to families around the world. Established in 2010, CCA supports the development, sale, distribution, and consistent use of clean cooking solutions that transform lives by improving health, protecting the climate and environment, and helping families save time and money. In alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals, CCA is working to achieve universal access to clean cooking by 2030.
The Government of Nepal (GoN) is committed to achieving universal access to clean cooking by 2030. To reach this goal, the GoN has set ambitious targets, including ensuring that 25% of households nationwide adopt electric cooking by 2030. In service of these goals, CCA has worked closely with the GoN since 2018, providing tailored support. In 2021, in close collaboration with the Alternative Energy Promotion Centre (AEPC), CCA launched the Country Action Plan (CAP) development for Transforming the Cookstoves and Fuels Market in Nepal. The CAP provides the GoN with a clear, strategic, and evidence-based roadmap with an actionable list of prioritized interventions to support Nepal’s energy access goals, especially those related to the promotion of electric cooking.
In 2024, CCA will implement the first phase to scale up the electric cookstoves (ECs) market in Nepal. This project will apply revolutionary ECs monitoring technology to unlock carbon finance and drive a sustainable ECs market in Nepal. Emerging Internet of Things (IoT) technology in electric cookstoves (ECs) enables real-time data collection for accurate monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV) while ensuring adherence to best business practices within the EC market. Using additional stove monitors to track stove stacking will also enable measurement of real use of all household cooking devices and provide more accurate emissions reduction estimates.The data gathered also plays a key role in the MRV of carbon credits. Establishing a carbon finance program for ECs will attract much-needed capital to establish a sustainable EC market.
This project will gather learnings to support the scaling-up of electric cooking across Nepal, prove viability to replicate this work at a national level with carbon credit buyers, reduce the barriers for companies to enter Nepal, and position Nepal to potentially be the first developing country globally to achieve 100% decarbonized cooking through the mass adoption of ECs. Project learnings will also be disseminated throughout the region, where ECs can scale up.
This is a paid opportunity from May 28, 2024, through September 2, 2024, and offers an hourly compensation rate of $17.50 per hour for individuals currently enrolled in or recently graduated from (within 8 months of graduation) an associate degree or bachelor’s degree program; and $20 per hour for individuals currently enrolled in a graduate program.
This position is remote. Access to a computer with a reliable internet connection is required.
The Nepal project is seeking a dynamic and versatile Intern who will work closely with the Director, Nepal project to support the project strategy, implementation, and management in Nepal.
