REHAU AND BIOGAS
Where do we come from at the Biogas-sector
Sample-Project: Bio-Energiezentrum Hochfranken Biomass: 30.000 to p.a. organic waste
- Elec. Power: 19.500 MWh
Total local renewable energy ratio: approx. 40%

IMPULSE – EXISTING PROBLEMS
- Cooking with open fire
Time for collecting firewood (mainly children, females) exhaust fumes, fuel is expensive 4 million prematurely deaths due to cooking with firewood per year (source:WHO) High CO2 and methan emission Respiratory and eye-diseases
- Deforestation
long way to collect firewood soil erosion → loss of soil fertility less rainfall and loss of local climate regulation

What drives us
2017-20-07 / Ernst-Otto Zippel / Scaling up biogas development from small-scale household programs to large scale commercial projects
/
INITIATION
Workshop with adolescents from the countryside → What could improve their situation? → Solution: Biogas for cooking
- improves health condition
- erases collecting firewood
→ time for education

PPP with Agroscience / REHAU co-financed by DEG Our Partner JKUAT has been found through the GWP and its Africa Forum Big advantages of JKUAT are:
- Technical Knowledge
- Well-known in Kenya
Industrial Partner
- Old REHAU Partner
- High technical and commercial competence
Identification of the Kenyan and German Partners

SURROUNDING CONDITIONS
Product
- Customer expense not over the value of 1-2 cows
- Easy installation and handling
- Transportable on available means of transport
(Matatu / Boda-Boda)
- Moveable / Bankable construction
Market
- Tapping new market
- Focusing in the beginning on Kenya
- Produce locally, German Engineering, use local sales
- Lead user important for mouth to mouth propaganda
- Later upgrade with higher quality REHAU products
- Local REHAU staff

REPRESENTATIVE FARMER
11
Who could be a potential customer
- Kenya is affected by subsistence agriculture.
At first the farmers (smallholders) produce mainly for own needs. If possible as well for sales (e.g. coffee, milk, tea, sugar cane). The first three products are produced in the Kenyan high plateau. We will focus on this area in the beginning.
- In the agriculture sector are existing networks and organisations usable
(COOP´s e.g. KCC, CAK, KWFT).
- Kenyan population : 46 Mio. Rural population: 74,6 % → 34 Mio (source: world fact book)
- Population of smallholders: 15,9 Mio (source: UN food and agriculture organization dtd 2015)
- Family size rural population: 5 – 6 people
- Market potential: approx. 3,2 Mio smallholders (nationally 4,3 Mio farms)
(source: UN food and agriculture organization dtd 2015)

FIRST PROTOTYPES
- Collecting experience through testing the product
Arising problems:
- Climatic influences
- Termites attack
- Difficult digging
- Glueing vs. welding
→ modify the product to local conditions

GERMAN IDEA AWARD 2014
13
The first touchdown
The microbiogasplant ‘REHAU HomeGas’ from the polymer specialist REHAU was granted the german idea award 2014 in the category ‘environment-idea’. The award which was initiated by the german institute for managerial-economics (DIB) in 2011 is since then yearly conferred. It is dedicated to the guidelines innovation, creativity and responsibility. In the laudation it was said that the microbiogasplant persuades amongst others with its social-cultural- as well as its ecological overvalue.

FOCUSING ON TARGETGROUP ORGANIZIED MILK FARMER
Kenyan smallholders: 3.200.000 (nationally 4,3 Mio farms) Dairy farming => 4,5% of national GDP, production: 5,2 Billion ltr/a (2014) -> 12 Billion ltr/a (2030), consumption: 4 Billion ltr/a (2014) -> 11 Billion ltr/a (2030) Smallholder milk farmers: 1.800.000 -> 3.500.000 dairy cattle Organized milk farmers: < 300.000 (Coop´s e.g. KCC, Brookside) KCC milk farmers: 60.000 (2-3 milk cows, regularly dairy business, regularly income, access to micro financing system)

CALCULATION FOR AN AVERAGE FAMILY
REHAU HOMEGAS: 58.000 KES Expenses for charcoal/firewood: 1.700 KES/month for fertilizer: 3.000 KES/month 4.700 KES/month 58.000 / 4.700 = 12,3 months => 1,0 years
