Inyenyeri
is a for-profit corporation with a social business charter focused on providing
a healthy renewable energy solution in Rwanda that can be replicated across
sub-Saharan Africa. Inyenyeri uses a fuel-side, or utility company, approach to
ensure that even the poorest Rwandan households have access to clean cooking
fuel and high quality gasifying cook stoves. Inyenyeri’s revenue stream is
derived from the sale of biomass cooking fuel pellets. Our solution is a
cleaner, healthier, faster, cheaper and more sustainable alternative to
charcoal and wood cooking.
