Introduction Relevance of domestic biogas for development PPRE Oldenburg University biogas compact course April 26 – 28, 2011

Presenters Dr. Henri Spanjers Based in Wageningen, The Netherlands. Project Director with Lettinga Associates Foundation (LeAF) at Wageningen University. Willem Boers Based in Addis Abeba, Ethiopia. Advisor to the Ethiopia National Domestic Biogas Programme and RE advisor for SNV. Steven von Eye Based in Groningen, the Netherlands. Energy Analyst for the Energy Delta Institute Felix ter Heegde Based in Nairobi, Kenya. Regional biogas / RE advisor for SNV

Domestic biogas Large scale dissemination of household bio-digesters; Minimum daily feeding 20kg of animal dung (cattle, buffalos, pigs, chicken) possibly with a toilet attachment, maximum feeding about 200kg; Replacing about 5kg of firewood, 1.5 kg of charcoal or 0.6litre of kerosene per 25kg dung/day; Investment cost in Asia between US$ 350 and 800. In Africa considerably more expensive.

Biogas: energy … Over 2 billion people worldwide lack access to clean, safe and sustainable domestic energy services. Lack of access to adequate, affordable, reliable, safe and environmentally benign energy is a severe constraint on development. A lack of access to clean and affordable energy can be considered a core dimension of poverty.

and so much more … :

MDG & domestic biogas I MDG 1 Eradicate extreme poverty and hunger Target 1To halve extreme poverty –Construction and installation of biogas creates employment for landless rural people. –Biogas saving on the use of traditional cooking fuels increases the availability of these fuels for (very) poor members of the community. MDG 3 Promote gender equality and empower women Target 4Eliminate gender disparity in education. –Domestic biogas reduces the workload –collection of firewood, tending the fire, cleaning soot of cooking utensils - with 2 to 3 hours per household per day. –Biogas illumination is highly appreciated for lighting, facilitating reading / education / economic activities during the evening.

MDG & domestic biogas II MDG 6 Combat HIV/AIDS, malaria and other diseases Target 8Halt/reverse incidence of malaria and other diseases. Biogas substitutes conventional energy sources, virtually eliminating indoor smoke pollution and, hence, the related health risks (e.g. respiratory diseases, eye ailments, burning accidents). Biogas greatly reduces the workload involved in the collection of traditional cooking fuels like wood.

MDG & domestic biogas III Biogas significantly improves the sanitary condition of farm yard and its immediate surrounding, lowering the exposure of household members to harmful infections generally related with polluted water and poor sanitation. Proper application of bio-slurry will improve agricultural production (e.g. vegetable gardening), thus contributing to food security for the community.

MDG & domestic biogas IV MDG 7 Ensure environmental sustainability Target 9Integrate the principles of sustainable development into country policies and programmes and reverse the loss of environmental resources. Particularly larger biogas dissemination programmes have a considerable governance component. As such, they positively influence national policies on sustainable development (e.g. agriculture, forestation) as well as promote participatory governance involving women and other disadvantaged groups.

MDG & domestic biogas V MDG 7 Ensure environmental sustainability Target 10Halve the proportion of people without sustainable access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation. Biogas reduces fresh water pollution as a result of improved management of dung. Connection of the toilet to the biogas plant significantly improves the farmyard sanitary condition.
