This is the share of people whose primary cooking fuel is clean. Values are modelled WHO estimates. The indicator is not electricity access, not heating or lighting, not stove quality, and not household PM2.5. Published 100 percent values in high-income countries include a source assumption. A high share is not a welfare score.
