Biogas works for small Piggeries
Biogas can not only offer you a opportunity to reduce your energy cost but also offers a proven environmental management solution for pig slurry.
Benefit for you:
- Generate renewable energy that will:
- Reduce cost of utility electricity usage (Eskom account)
- Generate heat that can be used in piggery – saving fuel cost for heating
- Give security of supply (own generation capacity – managing load shedding)
- Replace fossil fuel with natural renewable fuel
- Reduce carbon foot-print via greenhouse gas reduction
- CH4 reduction which is 21 x more harmful than CO2
- Reduce by-product management and handling cost
- Reduce solid content of slurry with at least 70% allowing it to be put directly into a irrigation system
- Improving the bio security of pig slurry
- Save water
- Generate a safe green bio-fertilizer

The business case for biogas from solid waste in the Western Cape
GreenCape has observed an increasing amount of interest and requests for information and market intelligence on the production of biogas from solid waste. This biogas document has been developed to assist those considering installing a biogas system. It outlines the factors affecting the financial feasibility of such an endeavour and forms part of GreenCape’s sector development efforts to assist in the uptake of biogas technology and the development of the industry in the Western Cape and in the rest of South Africa.
Renewable Finance Report 2018
The landscape of renewable energy finance has evolved rapidly. Since 2012, renewable power capacity installations have exceeded non-renewables by a rising margin, representing about 60% of all new power-generating capacity added worldwide in 2016 (IRENA, 2017a). Investment reached a comparable milestone in 2015, when renewable power technologies for the first time attracted more finance than non-renewable power technologies (Buchner et al., 2017), a trend that has continued subsequently.

What means Biofuel
Put simply, biofuel is energy made from living matter, usually plants. Bioethanol, biodiesel, and biogas are types of biofuels. Biofuels are considered renewable energies, emit less than fossil fuels, and have received increasing attention in the transition to a low-carbon economy.

It is a good example for our country, organic waste is enough available.
South African statistics says, we can produce more then 2 GWh from organic waste.
Let us do it and fossil fuel reduction save our life.
