Charcoal Project – Tracking charcoal prices

April 19, 2010 · 4 comments

We’re creating an index on our homepage that will track the price of charcoal around the world.  The information could be helpful to researchers and entrepreneurs.

We’d like to ask subscribers of the list to help us build the index by providing us with the following information:

  • 1. Location, Country, Date
  • 2. Unit of measure (wt. or volume). We’ll do the conversion on this end.
  • 3. Cost in local currency
  • 4. Optional information: cost of competing biomass fuel. For example, woodfuel or briquettes. And, if at all possible, cost of LPG, kerosene, or whatever the next fuel option available locally by volume or weight.

dear Mr Chaix
I am from Tunisia. the people still use plain charcoal. they do not use briquettes yet. the price here is half a dollar production site and almost a dollar to the consumer for the kilogram. the preferred species is the olive wood. some people started manufacturing briquettes but I have never seen people using itfrom the supermarket. please reply we may develop ideas. please tell me more about teh charcoal project
thanks
