Even today, adoption of appropriate
technologies and market mechanisms
by rural and urban poor is low due to
economic , soc io cu l tu ra l and
knowledge barriers. Numerous
technologies exist and new are
developed, however strategies to
make them accessible and adopted by
users are less. In agriculture, models are
required to ensure small and marginal
farmers living scattered and remotely
and with less marketable surplus gain
from the increasing consumption
driven economy and not disembark
farming.
The first one and a half year of Udaipur
Urja Initiatives was exciting and
challenging. A major hindrance was the
delay in the transfer of cookstove
project registration from Seva Mandir
to UUI that took over a year, much more
than anticipated. Nevertheless, the
year ended positively with UUI entering
in two partnerships with renowned
entities to sell carbon credits, which
illuminated the path.
We are overwhelmed by the patience,
faith and enthusiasm kept by our
members during this period. They
continuously encouraged us and even
extended financial support from their
village funds for agriculture pilots.
Continuous support and motivation from
Seva Mandir helped the team of UUI from
not losing the hope and energy. UUI staff
certainly deserves a mention here for
their perseverance.
We are pleased to present our first
report. We wish to receive your
comments and advises to make this
young organisation fulfil its mandate for
the communities.
Thank you.

A brief description of company's work
and activities done in the financial year(s)
2014 and 2015 are presented here.
1. Community engagement : A
key activity in this period was to initiate
building the institutional base of the
company. It involved enrolment of
families to become members for whom
the company will undertake various
business activities.
The focus therefore was on creating
awareness and faith for the company
among communities and motivate them
to take membership. Several cluster and
villagelevel meetings reaching out to
communities of about 70 villages were
held during August and September
2014. The pace of enrolling members
was slow in initial months, and
ActivitiesSection 1
membership reached to 201 from 19
vi l lages by December 2014.The
enrolment was halted for a year till the
registration of cookstoves project got
transferred from Seva Mandir to UUI. It
was resumed in January 2016. Year 2015
16 ended with a membership of 1,061
from 20 villages. The membership is
expected to increase substantially with
the implementation of cookstoves
intervention.
The primary business activity of
UUI involves assisting members
to access and adopt biomass
stoves that have less wood
requirement and emit less
harmful gases.

Woman of a household of 8 members in Jhuthri village used to collect wood from nearby forest during the months of winter. This involved a lot of efforts and drudgery. Sometimes, the family had to purchase wood from the vendors. In the home, cooking was done on traditional stoves and smoke emission was huge.
The family joined the programme in February 2016 and took cookstoves

from the monitor who explained about the advantages of stoves. The family took the stoves as a long term solution to cooking fuel problem. Now a woman of the family shares that “these cookstoves have almost brought down the need of wood in cooking to half, with which the family saved Rs. 2000 in a year. The family no longer purchases wood.” Other benefits include less smoke, reduction in cooking time and possibility to move stoves anywhere.”

The primary business activity of UUI
involves assisting members to access and
adopt biomass stoves that have less
wood requirement and emit less harmful
gases. The activity is taken under a
project initially developed by Seva
Mandir to support 18,500 families switch
from traditional to efficient stoves. With
an aim of removing financial barrier of
families, the project was designed to use
carbon finance and was registered with
UNFCCC and Gold Standard.
However, Seva Mandir being a non
profit, decided to not get into the
business of carbon trading, and UUI was
promoted to take the intervention
further.
Over 90% families in Udaipur region
depend on fuel wood and biomass for
cooking, water and space heating,
making animal feed, and other domestic
needs. Average annual need of a family
for biomass is about 3,200 kg, in which
wood is a key constituent. Fuel wood is
collected from the forest and other
community lands contributing to
deforestation, and some families even
purchase wood shredding away a share
of limited cash income. Cooking and
other domestic activities are done on
highly inefficient mud or stone stoves that
consume more fuel and emit harmful
gases. The access of communities to LPG
and other improved fuel and cooking
technologies is extremely low due to
poverty, hilly terrain and lack of supply
infrastructure.

In February 2016, Kalpana was selected by village institution to work in cookstove
programme. Kalpana hails from Kakan a small village in Rishabdeo tehsil. After initial
training her immediate task was to promote and distribute cook stoves in her village. She
did this by doing campaigns in which she used to take the stoves to a common place where
other villagers would gather and explained how it works. At the start people were a little
apprehensive about taking them but she could persuade them based on various
advantages of the cook stoves such as reduction in wood consumption, portability, health
benefits, cooking time, cost etc. With all the hard work and various strategies adopted, she
could distribute 500 cook stoves in 5 hamlets. She now monitors the use of stoves in
which she goes to every household with cook-stoves once a month and check whether
people are using them. Currently, she monitors 250 households in 5 hamlets and earns
about Rs. 3,500 per month.
Visiting 250 households, in such a terrain, every month is a challenging task. But
accepting this challenge, Kalpana confidently says “I have had a very good opportunity
of working with the company as it helped me network with the villagers during
distribution & monitoring. I used to be a reticent person, but exposure gained during the
project has made me more confident & even people in the village respect me for my work.
I have attended 3 trainings about cookstoves and now I feel confident to conduct sessions
for other monitors.”

Grameen. The stoves have thermal
efficiency of about 30%, and delivers fuel
savings up to 65% and minimizes
emissions of CO, CO and Particulate 2
Matter (PM) substant ia l l y . The
participating families take a set of two
stoves, pay a contribution of Rs. 500, and
commit to use new stoves for 5 years to
generate carbon credits. Families have to
cease the use of traditional stoves
completely or as much as possible. The
use of new stoves is monitored diligently
and their maintenance and repair is
handled by UUI.
During this period, the registration of the
project was transferred by Seva Mandir to
UUI. The transfer took more than a year to
happen, only after the registration under
UNFCCC was voluntarily withdrawn by
Seva Mandir. The project is now
registered with the Gold Standard known
for recognising projects that contribute
to Sustainable Development of poor
along with reducing carbon emissions.
The second important progress was
made in terms of entering into two
partnerships of selling carbon credits.
These partnerships have secured
finances for the entire project and
ensured an improved technology for
18,500 families that will transform their
l i v i n g c o n d i t i o n s v i t a l l y . T h e
implementation of first partnership was
initiated in January 2016, and by end of
March, 1054 families from 13 villages had
taken stoves. The execution of second
partnership will be initiated from April
2016.
For the distribution and monitoring of
stoves, local women were appointed as
monitors selected by the community
inst i tut ions. The monitors were
responsible for raising awareness about
stoves and project, and motivate the
families to enrol and take stoves. 10
monitors started to were appointed in
this period. Two trainings of 2days
involving classroom and field sessions
were held to train the monitors on
different aspects of the intervention.
Monitors visit each assigned family once
a month to check the usage of stoves and
help families in any problems.
3. Agro-produces : Small and
marginal farmers in Udaipur region have
been able to improve productivity of their
farming with the aid from various natural
resources development activities
undertaken of and nongovernment
government organisations. Nonetheless,
they still find difficulty in getting good
returns from selling their agroproduces
due to small sellable quantities and
higher expenditure incurred in selling.
UUI has started preparing to support the
communities increase their income from
agriculture and allied livelihood activities.
The main task in this period was to
understand current value chains of
d i f ferent produces, understand
challenges of farmers and develop
strategies to intervene. The work was
initiated in 201415 with value chain
assessment of mango and wheat. In
201516 pilots were undertaken on
trading of mango, wheat, pigeon pea,
green gram, onion, lemon and amla. This
involved aggregation and trading of
produces. A small pilot on processing of
wheat and custard apple was taken up.
Useful insights were obtained from both
trading and processing which are being
used to develop strategies.
A total 80 farmers from 15 villages were
covered across different pilots. In
processing, 14 women were engaged.
Even though this was done for the first
time, farmers were able to earn Rs. 1 to 2
per kg more by saving selling cost or
getting higher price. Women groups
and village institutions setup by Seva
Mandir were engaged in procuring the
produces locally. They invested their
funds in this activity. In this process, the
groups were being able to earn Rs. 1 to
3.50 per kg against investment of their
funds.
An important outcome of these pilots was
the evolvement of a new role for the
community institutions formed by Seva
Mandir. The institutions helped in
organising farmers, facilitate the decision
on price and other terms between
farmers and UUI, kept the check on
quality of produce, and also invested
their funds in purchasing the goods. This
innovation was appreciated by the
farmers and the community institutions,
and benefited the company. It will be
explored and strengthened further in
future.
4. Other Activities
In 201516, an assignment to assess the
feasibility in intervening in valuechains
and valueaddition of different
agriculture produces grown in Udaipur
district was undertaken jointly with
Seva Mandir. The assessment involved
understanding the current valuechains
