A MozCarbon também fornece fogões a outras entidades interessadas, como desenvolvedores de projectos de carbono, empresas, instituições de caridade e outro tipo de organizações na área de energia. A MozCarbon também dissemina fogões a lenha em áreas rurais para as famílias que dependem da lenha para cozinhar.
