Inyenyeri Fuel Pellets

The fuel pellets are made from a mixture of dry biomass (agricultural waste, etc.) that would otherwise be collected and burned as waste by rural Rwandan households. Wood from trees is not used.

Support staff available by phone or in person.

Single use

Through a partnership with UNHCR, Inyenyeri provided 300 refugee families in Kigeme camp with their Stove+Fuel solution. These families stated that cooking with the stove had a positive impact on their health by reducing their exposure to toxic emissions. The UNHCR also stated that the biomass required to cook meals reduced by 80-90% compared to the baseline.

Fuel pellets are usually a safe fuel for small users like households. However, since they are made with combustible materials, the risk of fire will always be a concern as well as harmful gases emissions like carbon dioxide and monoxide, nitrogen oxides, and hydrocarbons.
