Innovation lies in the local, tailored approach
There are already some ideas on the table: circular bamboo farms and the use of invasive plant species.

A strong foundation and building an innovation mindset
Yes, briquettes might not be the end goal in the energy transition. But we have to look at local conditions and capacities and adapt to that. If you can get someone to transition from an open fire to a briquette-oriented solution, then you should see it as a stepping stone to a sustainable future.
