Energy
Self-sufficient? Self-sufficiency? How do we generate energy and what can the future hold? Off the grid?!
Energy - The future lies in decentralised energy systems
With our Jungle Farm, we are not only creating jobs, we are also creating a community in which people can live in harmony with nature. By building a sustainable infrastructure and supporting social projects, we offer the people on our farm a safe and supportive environment in which they and their families want to live.
We are part of the energy transition
In a world where traditional energy grids are often unreliable and harmful to the environment, we see decentralised energy systems as the solution for a sustainable future. These not only offer greater independence and reliability, but also make it possible to generate energy exactly where it is needed. In this way, we are creating a strong and modern infrastructure that massively reduces losses. And form the basis for our diverse projects that actively contribute to the energy transition.
Our projects - biogas, mini-hydro power and solar plants
We are working intensively on the development and implementation of various sustainable energy sources.
- Biogas: By utilising organic waste, we can produce biogas, which serves as a clean energy source for cooking, heating and electricity generation. This technology not only offers a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels, but also helps to reduce waste and reduce the impact on the environment.
- Mini-hydro power stations: In areas with running water, we rely on small hydro-power stations that can generate electricity locally. These mini-hydro power stations are efficient and have a low ecological footprint. This makes them ideal for rural and remote regions such as the Ethiopian highlands.
- Solar plants: Solar energy is of course one of the cleanest and most readily available energy sources. Our solar projects aim to optimise the use of this valuable resource to ensure a sustainable and reliable energy supply. By installing solar panels, we can not only cover our own energy needs, but also feed surplus energy into the local grid.
