Which fuel is used in your home for cooking?
Though modern fuels like kerosene and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) are the major sources of cooking energy in urban India, a large proportion of households still use biomass such as firewood, dung, crop residue and coal/charcoal.
Which fuel is most commonly used in the kitchen?
The most common fuel used for cooking and heating is wood, followed by other solid biomass fuels, such as charcoal, dung, agricultural residues and sometimes even leaves and grass.
What are the fuels used at home?
Electricity and natural gas are the most-used energy sources in homes
- electricity—all types of energy end uses.
- natural gas—space and water heating, clothes drying, cooking.
- heating oil—space and water heating, clothes drying.
- LPG/propane—space and water heating, clothes drying, cooking.
- kerosene—space heating.
What is kitchen fuel?
Wood, crop wastes, coal, dung, and charcoal are the most widely used cooking fuels. Many people are turning to other cooking fuels such as sunlight, processed plant wastes (rice husks and other crop wastes made into pellets or briquettes), and biogas (a gas produced by rotting plant matter and human and animal waste).
Which fuel is used in stove?
Many stoves use natural gas to provide heat. A gas stove is a stove that is fuelled by combustible gas such as syngas, natural gas, propane, butane, liquefied petroleum gas or other flammable gas. Before the advent of gas, cooking stoves relied on solid fuels such as coal or wood.

What kind of fuel do you use in a kitchen?
Coal 4. Wood 5. Electricity 6. Steam 7. Solid Fuel/ Handy Fuel 8. Solar Energy. Fuel # 1. LPG: LPG or liquefied petroleum gas is the generic name for commercial propane and butane composed fuel used in the kitchen to fuel gas burners.
Why do people use different fuels for cooking?
Observations have shown that households prefer to use fuels such as LPG, to increase their cooking options. Thus users increase their options using several choices, using several fuels concurrently.
What kind of gas do you use in a cooking range?
They are used for cooking, boiling, and steaming. They often operate on Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG). Now induction burners and hot plates are available, which operate on electricity. They come with open top, mesh top, or flat top. Cooking range is the most versatile equipment operating on either LPG or electricity.
Which is the most expensive fuel to run an oven?
Oil, solid fuels like coal, wood are the most expensive unless you have a source of free wood. Gas is a low cost fuel although there is little difference in running an oven, you will save on the cost of running the hob as gas gives instantaneous, very controllable heat.
