This developmental study focused in designing and constructing a prototype stove, which is powered by electricity but featured with diesel gas/vegetable oil burner in case of electrical power shutdown. Diesel was used as substitute for LPG and kerosene as it is cheaper than the latter and was considered to be the right material for this research study. Charcoal on the other hand, was also a special feature in the stove, as the last recourse in case of power shutdown and diesel shortage. Electric stove served as the model in creating this new innovation. An electric stove was converted into an improvised stove which is powered by either electricity, diesel or charcoal. The prototype design was rated as to its efficiency by selected households nearby, canteen operators, restaurant owners, chefs in catering services, and Electrical students and instructors and FSM instructors in the College of Industrial Technology. Results indicated that the 3-in-1 stove was easy to construct because of the availability of the needed supplies and materials and efficient because it is easy to operate, safe, economical (less/low fuel consumption), and durable. The 35% vegetable oil and 65% diesel was the best ratio to prove that the 3-in-1 stove is eco-friendly.
