The project is undertaken in Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, and Burkina Faso. By June 2018, 320,000 people have benefitted from ABPP.
The Africa Biogas Partnership Programme (ABPP) is a Public- Private Partnership engagement programme which aims to provide access-to-energy services through the installation of biogas digesters in partnership with local enterprises, NGOs, and governments. After a first phase, the focus for the second phase will be on improving customer service and climate finance opportunities through the sale of carbon credits on international markets.

To provide access to sustainable energy sources
To develop a viable and market-oriented biogas sector
To engage women and youth in low-carbon employment
Since January 2010, SNV Burkina Faso has been a technical partner of PNB-BF (National Programme of Biodigesters) along with the government of Burkina Faso. Our work in the domestic biogas sector is built on our worldwide recognition and hands-on-experience we gained through eighteen biogas programmes in Africa (through the Africa Biogas Partnership Programme) and Asia.
The objectives of this partnership is to create a sustainable sector focused on building bio-digesters in order to improve life conditions of the population, increase agro-pastoral production and fight against poverty in rural and peri-urban areas. As a key supporter of the Africa Biogas Partnership Programme, SNV has been active in the Burkina Faso biogas sector since 2009. SNV aims to support access to renewable energy technology for more than 150,000 people in Burkina Faso by 2015, including the creation of 1,000 jobs in the biogas value chain.
Based on phase I of the programme (6,014 biodigesters built and about 300 masons trained), the second phase will aim to create 14 biodigesters building enterprises cooperatives and to train about 10,000 actors, including households.
The second phase of the programme’s overall objective is to strengthen the contribution of the biodigester technology sector in the improvement of living conditions, food security and rural incomes through the use of commercial and non-commercial benefits of the biodigester.
