Takamoto Biogas

We believe that everyone should have access to reliable, affordable and sustainable energy. We have developed a biogas model called Lease-to-Own Biogas where our clients pay a small fee to install a biogas system on their compound and then pay monthly affordable installments to use as much biogas as they want. Takamoto Biogas was founded in 2011 as a biogas construction company and installed nearly 40 masonry biogas systems in its first 2 years of operations. During this time we got to know our clients and have since developed a biogas system that better meets their needs. Our new systems are pre-fabricated, which allows us to install systems in one day (compared with 14 days for masonry systems) and deliver biogas to our clients within 2 days (compared with up to 2 months with masonry systems). We now have over 300 biogas systems installed in Central Kenya and looking to expand. In addition, we provide biogas stoves and water heaters, addressing the inconsistent supply of appliances that has held the market back in the past.
