Clean cooking pellets, Rwanda

Cooking with pellets in Rwanda has many benefits in terms of health, climate and environment, social aspects and the economy. Cooking with pellets is cleaner, faster and cheaper than with charcoal. In addition, raw materials for pellet production can be obtained from local sources. This stimulates the local economy and reduces dependence on imported energy solutions. The materials consist of substances such as wood or organic residues, creating a circular solution. In addition, many green jobs are created within the project’s value chain. Pellets provide opportunities for entrepreneurs, farmers and young graduates – especially women – to enter a new sector that offers opportunities in domestic and foreign trade.
