H2 Fuel for Cooking

The information on fuel for cooking is relevant in assessing energy planning decisions, energy conservation programs and in developing marketing strategies. It also serves as a benchmark for the study of changes in household energy used and user patterns over time. It is also useful in monitoring supply and demand requirements for alternative fuels.

The question in H2 asks for the kind of fuel the household uses most of the time for cooking. Enter in the box the code for the appropriate item. If two or more kinds of cooking fuel are used, e.g., electricity and LPG; LPG and wood; kerosene and charcoal; etc., report the fuel which is used most of the time for cooking.


1 Electricity
2 Kerosene (gaas)
3 Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG)

6 Others, specify

For power from generators, report the fuel used to run the generator.
