Clean Cooking Activities

Sistema Biobolsa is a high-quality modular biogas system that is capable of converting organic waste from farms, agribusinesses and toilets into an energy-rich biogas and organic fertilizer. Our patented and proven design reimagines biogas systems as durable goods that can be prefabricated and efficiently distributed worldwide. We serve small subsistence farmers, productive scale agricultural operations, and household and institutional bathrooms. With over 10 years of R&D and nearly six years as a social business, we have proven the performance of Sistema Biobolsa in over 2500 farms in nine countries. We help farmers produce electrical, mechanical and thermal renewable energy with a full range of biogas motors, stoves and boilers. Sistema Biobolsa comes as a turn-key system, can be installed in hours, and requires little maintenance. We complement the innovative technology with a financing program with KIVA and a cloud-based service and impact monitoring program.

We use efficient cookstoves to bring the biogas to our clients’ kitchen, allowing them to displace wood and LP gas. These clean cookstoves and clean fuels bring high quality renewable energy to families of thousands of smallholder farmers.

Partnership

Sistema Biobolsa is motivated to participate in communities where entrepreneurs and creative people are addressing diverse, large challenges in order to improve the quality of our environment and society. The exchange and learning with other like-minded and equally unreasonable people provides motivation and tactical skills for addressing the profound challenges of our work. As a mentor and leading voice in the Latin American social and environmental movement, Sistema Biobolsa would provide a positive and thoughtful element to the group. I believe in the reciprocal benefits of helping other organizations with contacts and advice, recognizing the fine line between contribution and benefit.
