Summary. This study analyzes data from 43 African countries between 2000 and 2023 to examine how rural access to clean cooking fuels and technologies affects sustainable development and socioeconomic outcomes. Results show that increased rural access to clean cooking energy significantly improves both sustainable development and socioeconomic conditions, with a 1% increase in access raising socioeconomic outcomes by 1.43%. The research recommends governments reduce commercialization timelines, provide subsidies and tax incentives, and establish supportive financing policies for clean cooking energy adoption.
