Members’ Statement of Intent
The Global Cooksafe Coalition (GCC) exists to promote universal access to safe and sustainable cooking.
That means affordable, fossil-fuel-free cooking, using energy-efficient appliances, powered by rapidly decarbonising grids or distributed renewable energy.
We, the undersigned, commit to:
- By at least 2030, all new kitchens in OECD countries will use energy efficient electric cooking appliances
- By 2035, all new kitchens worldwide will use energy efficient electric cooking appliances
- By at least 2040, all existing kitchens in OECD countries will use energy efficient electric cooking appliances
- By 2045, all existing kitchens worldwide will use energy efficient electric cooking appliances
We support:
- Energy efficient electric cooking appliances powered by a rapidly decarbonising grid or distributed renewable energy.
- An immediate, urgent increase in public finance allocated to electrification of cooking in all countries.
- Fiscal policy supporting households and small businesses to transition to energy efficient electric appliances.
- Fiscal policy assisting vulnerable health cohorts to transition to energy efficient electric appliances.
- Improved indoor air quality standards
