Energy sustainability and carbon emission reduction programs are widespread issues in various countries. One sector of concern in the program is the household sector with cooking activities as its focus. Therefore the cooking fuel conversion program is often carried out in various countries and even in Indonesia, such as the program of conversion of kerosene to LPG. In this article, we review the options for using induction stoves for Indonesian society. The method for our review is based on the comparison of articles in previous studies. In various experiments, it has been stated that induction stoves have better energy efficiency than electric filament stoves and LPG stoves. As a result, the operational costs of induction stoves are lower than those of the two stoves. Also, the carbon emissions of induction stoves are lower than LPG stoves. However, several challenges must be resolved if the policy about the conversion of LPG stoves to induction stoves will be implemented in Indonesia.
