Environmental policy and administrative management

The overall objective of the project is to demonstrate and promote renewable energy technologies that are environmentally friendly, through installation of a biogas production system at the Matelile Community Development Centre. The Matelile community depends on biomass for fuel for cooking and heating in an area that is very dry with the result that is badly eroded. Gas and paraffin which are alternatives have become increasingly expensive and unaffordable. The construction of biogas digester for the production of biogas can be adopted as an alternative to biomass and other sources that damage the environment through land degradation and air pollution.
