Productive Biogas: Current and Future Development

Overview

The question that gave rise to this work was as to why no substantial productive biogas sector had emerged in any developing country before. Which are the market barriers inhibiting sector growth? Why have productive biogas systems not reached a larger scale? Can productive biogas, particularly those systems that are community owned, be deployed in a sustainable way? The five case studies outlined in this publication, seeking to fill these knowledge gaps, provide a detailed description of productive biogas projects led by FACT and SNV in Mali, Uganda, Vietnam, Honduras and Peru. They openly list the challenges and lessons learned to be considered before replication.
