The purpose of this question is to allocate a household to a baseline scenario, whereby fuel consumption is defined as that fuel ‘primary’ Measurement methods and meeting more than 50% of their fuel needs for cooking purposes. The procedures households that respond for example, are subsequently allocated “firewood”, to the baseline scenario b1. This means that households in, for example, baseline scenario b1 may also use small amounts of fossil fuels (i.e. secondary and tertiary fuels) for cooking, which will be included in the baseline emissions.
