It was formed specifically to participate in the Renewable Energy space through investments in project equity and in order to provide full suite related services. Through drawing on the expertise and services of other group investee companies, Fanira Energy has aligned itself with significant projects and developments.
Our mission is to make a positive impact on African communities by developing, building, managing and providing clean, affordable, reliable and sustainable energy solutions. Access to sustainable and modern energy services is a prerequisite for meeting basic human needs and for economic and social development across Africa.
As such, energy consumption continues to increase at staggering pace, hand in hand with global population growth and economic and social development.
At the same time, efforts to decarbonize our environment are growing and sustainability is now a priority.
Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG)
Liquefied Petroleum Gas otherwise known as LPG is a versatile energy source that is a low carbon, low pollution alternative to traditional energy sources. LPG has a carbon footprint that is approximately 20% lower than conventional heating oil and approximately 50% lower than coal.
It has numerous uses and applications including:
- Space and water heating
- Crop drying
- Catering
- Poultry rearing
- Hospitality
- Powering industrial ovens, kilns and furnaces
- Drying
- Metal processing
- Food production
- Transport
BioGaz
Fanira Energy has strategically invested in the development and deployment of biogas energy production technology. Though this technology is well understood, very few innovative, low cost, sustainable units are readily available.
Biogas is a renewable source of energy that belongs to the category of biofuels and refers to gas produced by the biological breakdown of organic matter in the absence of oxygen (anaerobic digestion). The anaerobic digestion or fermentation of biodegradable materials such as biomass, manure, sewage, municipal waste, green waste, plant material and crops produces biogas.
A biogas digester can provide gas for cooking, lighting and heating purposes from animal and food waste, thus eliminating the need to burn fossil fuels. The digester also produces organic fertilizer that will aide in the in growth of vegetables and other food crops.
BioGaz has far reaching benefits beyond reduced cost and efficient energy source. Additional benefits include:
- Reduction in the use of firewood minimising deforestation.
- Sustainable and environmentally friendly renewable energy production.
- Reduction of health risks associated with smoke inhalation from wood fires inside houses.
- Reduction of fire risks associated with the use of paraffin and candles for cooking and lighting.
- Environmentally friendly conversion of organic waste into organic fertiliser.
- Organic fertiliser can be used to grow vegetables and other crops, enhancing food security.
- Carbon mitigation be preventing methane from entering the atmosphere.
