MZUZU UNIVERSITY LUANCHES THE CHOMA-CHIGWERE BIOGAS PROJECT



It was the British High Commissioner himself who luanched the project.The Vice-Chancellor of Mzuzu University, Prof. Landson Mhango, watches him cutting the ribbon.

It was exciting to witness the fire coming from the biogas.It was amazing to see that cowdung is a source of heating energy.

Yes, what you consider a waste should be a resource in another way.

Dear Collen,

It's indeed encouraging to read of renewable energy initiatives in Malawi. I spent part of my childhood in your beautiful country and I long to return.

It so happens that I am the founder of Empower Projects, a social enterprise based in Sydney, Australia. We focus on co-creating, financing and measuring the impact of community based renewable energy projects. Not unlike the projects you are chronicling through this blog.

I am very interested in collaboratively setting up a community based renewable energy project in Malawi. I would sincerely appreciate it if you could get in touch with my via email as I'd appreciate your insight into how I can go about this.
