Looking for top-notch biogas installation services in Kenya that can help you save significantly on household expenses? SaveC Solutions Company specializes in installing and commissioning various biogas plants across the country.
Kenya has been actively exploring alternative energy sources, especially since the introduction of the feed-in tariff policy. This policy allows the government to reimburse individuals for the energy they generate. Consequently, investors are seizing the opportunity to set up biogas production equipment. Biogas, similar to natural gas but produced by specific bacteria consuming human and animal waste, can be utilized directly in generators or stored for later use. It’s a game-changer, utilizing approximately 30 percent of solid municipal waste.
So, what’s the cost of setting up biogas systems for your home or business in Kenya?
The primary consideration for biogas installation in Kenya is its cost. Biogas plants excel in treating and disposing of waste, particularly from livestock. Animal waste materials such as urine, dung, and leftover food scraps are utilized in the digester.
The installation cost typically ranges between 50,000 and 200,000 Kenyan Shillings. Factors that contribute to increased installation costs include:
- Biogas type: If using a chemical gasifier, technical complexities may arise, necessitating safety measures such as installing filters to prevent explosions and protecting the system from electrical hazards or lightning strikes.
- Smaller gasifiers might incur higher expenses due to the need for a continuous supply of organic materials to sustain production.
Installing biogas systems presents a promising opportunity to tap into alternative energy sources while efficiently managing waste in Kenya.
