项目摘要

SoFo will take the research done on the Score-Stove project and explore at least two business models for exploitation in each of Bangladesh, Tajikistan and the UK. The original call from EPSRC was specifically targeted at developing country applications. The Score proposal, as granted by EPSRC, was covenanted to ensure that any profits made in the developing countries remained in those countries. Commercialisation in these regions has to benefit the targeted societies. The Score thermo-acoustic technology has wider applications and we also intend to commercialise the technology within the UK by licence and grants for such uses as CHP (Combined Heat and Power) and bio-mass burning cooking stoves. The Score-Stove is a low-cost wood or dung burning stove that also generates electricity for use in individual households. It reduces wood consumption by up to 50% and virtually eliminates smoke inhalation that causes so many health concerns in developing countries where households cook on a 3 stone stove and have no access to electricity. SoFo will stimulate interest in developing country and UK manufacturers and investors. Through demonstrations it will obtain more accurate costs for stove manufacture and produce market research for each target area. The demonstrations will each be customised for local cooking habits, fuel and aesthetic requirements, so as to put the existing scientific rig into a more attractive business proposition. The potential rural world-wide market for the stove is from 15 million to 500 million units depending on the product cost and carbon credits or grants available. The UK replacement CHP boiler market is estimated at 250,000 units per year. This project will evaluate how much of these markets are available within the three targeted countries.

SoFo将利用Score-Stove项目的研究成果，在孟加拉国、塔吉克斯坦和英国各探索至少两种商业模式。EPSRC最初的呼吁专门针对发展中国家的应用。经济和环境研究委员会批准的评分建议是保证在发展中国家赚取的任何利润都留在这些国家。这些地区的商业化必须使目标社会受益。Score热声技术有更广泛的应用，我们还打算通过许可证和赠款将该技术在英国商业化，用于热电联产和生物质燃烧烹饪炉。Score-Stove是一种低成本的木材或粪便燃烧炉，也可以发电供个人家庭使用。它减少了高达50%的木材消耗，并几乎消除了在发展中国家造成许多健康问题的烟雾吸入，这些国家的家庭在3个石头炉子上做饭，没有电力供应。SoFo将激发发展中国家和英国制造商及投资者的兴趣。通过论证，将获得更准确的炉具制造成本，并对每个目标区域进行市场调研。每个演示都将根据当地的烹饪习惯、燃料和审美要求进行定制，从而使现有的科学钻机更具吸引力。根据产品成本和可获得的碳信用额或赠款，这种炉子的潜在全球农村市场在1500万至5亿单位之间。英国替代热电联产锅炉市场估计为每年25万台。该项目将评估在三个目标国家内有多少这类市场。
