Part 3: Information about housing
The DTV collects information about the housing situation of the household. Do not collect housing information for specific demographics.
Question 62: What is the main type of fuel (energy) that your household uses for cooking?
Cooking includes cooking rice, cooking food, and drinking water. The main type of fuel (energy) used by the household for cooking is the fuel (energy) that in the past year (12 months before the time of the survey), the household used the most for cooking.
Fuel (energy) used for cooking includes the following types: electricity, gas/biogas, coal, firewood, and other fuels (energy).
In fact, there are households that do not use any fuel (energy) to cook for a long time; they often eat in restaurants and various types of canteen/mess halls. In this case, the DTV chooses the code "Do not use anything".
For example: A household uses an electric rice cooker to cook rice and a gas stove to cook food. In this case, the DTV determines that the main fuel (energy) that the household uses for cooking is gas.
