dc.description.abstractCooking is an essential activity in the households in Sri Lanka. Sri Lankan households utilize several types of fuel to produce heat for their daily cooking needs. The most commonly used energy sources are Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG) and Electricity. Therefore, it is essential to investigate the economic aspects of using each of these energy sources. This research aims to use existing data on several cooking appliances along with LPG and Electricity charges in Sri Lanka to calculate the costs of using each of the energy sources. With the total monthly cost of LPG at Rs.560/= and Electricity at Rs.1150/= as of March 2020, this study suggests that LPG is the most suitable energy source for cooking in Sri Lankan households.en_US
