Toivottavasti tekniset haasteet saadaan pian hallintaan. Biokaasu on paitsi ilmaston ja vesistöjen kannalta erinomainen ratkaisu myös tärkeä osa köyhimpien maiden pyrkimyksiä parantaa energiahuoltoa ja hyvinvointia. #EEP_Mekong

Dual-feedstock RPG biogas plant ribbon-cut today. Finnish #EEP_mekong grant was 13% of 7M€ project. Produces 9t for vehicles and 21t for starch drying daily. Earlier, starch waste water was kept in open ponds, releasing methane to atmosphere. GHG mitigation 127kt/CO2eq p.a.
Thai Biogas Energy Co. #TBEC Rayong biodigester makes 3 t/day methane from cassava starch wastes. Saves fossil fuels in vehicles & starch process. Finnish grant 220k€, this 850k€ biogas plant mitigates 18kt CO2eq per year and easily replicable around #EEP_mekong countries
