The Accra Metropolitan Assembly (AMA) has officially handed over a newly installed DAS Portable Prefab Biogas Plant that converts organic waste into cooking gas and waste bins to St.
Mary's Senior High School to improve waste management practices and promote environmental sustainability in the city.
The project is expected to generate 2m³ of biogas daily, equivalent to 1kg of LPG, cut the school's monthly expenditure of 7,200 Ghana cedis on cooking gas, reduce reliance on fossil fuels for cooking and lowering the school's energy costs, as well as provide renewable energy.
The plant is also expected to produce bio fertilizers and promote sustainable farming practices, support local waste management, as well as foster environmental education among students among others.
