Published in 2025 at "Science"

DOI: 10.1126/science.adr7394

Abstract: We present results from a randomized controlled trial in Bangladesh that introduced operational practices to improve energy efficiency and reduce emissions in 276 "zigzag" brick kilns. Of all intervention kilns, 65% adopted the improved practices.… read more here.
