One Input, Two Valuable Outputs 

HomeBiogas systems harness the power of organic waste to create a dual benefit:
Clean Cooking Fuel: Biogas replaces harmful traditional fuels, improving indoor air quality and reducing deforestation.
Nutrient-Rich Fertilizer: Bio-fertilizer enhances soil health and crop yields, boosting farmers’ incomes. 

“Using bio-fertilizer has saved me approximately $100 annually compared to chemical alternatives. My crops are healthier, and my family breathes easier.” 

John, a farmer from Nakuru, shares his experience with Charity, Home Biogas’s Agronomist at in Kenya: 

Empowering Communities, Protecting the Planet Beyond individual households,
HomeBiogas contributes to a larger environmental and social impact: 

Reduced greenhouse gas emissions: By replacing traditional fuels, we’re combating climate change. mproved livelihoods: Increased income from better harvests empowers farmers and their communities. 
Sustainable practices: Our technology promotes a circular economy and resource efficiency. 

Our Vision: 

HomeBiogas is committed to scaling its impact and reaching even more Kenyan families. By providing access to clean energy, enhancing agricultural practices, and empowering communities, we are building a sustainable future for generations to come.

Clean Cooking and a Healthier Environment 

Before HomeBiogas, Kenyan households relied heavily on traditional, harmful cooking methods like firewood and charcoal.
This led to significant health issues, particularly among women and children exposed to smoke inhalation.
HomeBiogas has revolutionized cooking practices by providing clean, efficient biogas. Families now enjoy smoke-free kitchens, leading to improved respiratory health and overall well-being. 
Additionally, by reducing reliance on firewood and charcoal, HomeBiogas is helping to combat deforestation and mitigate climate change.
