BioLite
BioLite, a startup based in New York City, designs energy products focused on burning wood as cleanly as modern fuels while generating off-grid electricity. Using thermoelectric technology, BioLite produces wood-burning stoves that also function as chargers for portable electronic devices. The HomeStove and the CampStove are BioLite’s main products.
== History ==
Jonathan Cedar and Alexander Drummond together developed the BioLite stove technology. They met while working at Smart Design, a design consultancy in New York City.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.dartmouthengineer.com/2012/08/inventions-summer-2012/ )〕 The two inventors became interested in portable stoves that combined local sources of wood with battery-powered fans. The idea evolved to a low-emissions stove that utilized a thermoelectric generator called the BioLite CampStove, which was officially launched in 2012. BioLite now has twenty employees and is headquartered in DUMBO, Brooklyn with additional branches in Seattle and Austin.
Early on in BioLite's development, winning a clean combustion competition inspired the founders, realizing that their technology could have impact on off-grid developing communities.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.guardian.co.uk/global/2010/sep/12/innovator-jonathan-cedar-alex-drummond-biolite-eco-stove )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.nytimes.com/2012/05/21/arts/21iht-design21.html?_r=1&adxnnl=1&smid=pl-share&adxnnlx=1371447707-LoZv+J84bTrNS/Iy/z16wQ )〕 Using a modified rocket stove and working with the Aprovecho Research Center, Cedar developed a larger model cook stove named the HomeStove, designed to replace harmful indoor cooking fires.
