A project implemented in close cooperation with its partners the National Biodigester Program (NBP), CIEDC and SNV aims to contribute to the development of a permanent, market oriented, biodigester sector in seven provinces of Cambodia with its main focus on Takeo province. Biodigesters are a locally well-proven technology which takes advantage of gasses released from decomposing manure. The project expands the program implemented by SNV and NBP since 2005.  Through stimulating market demand by subsidizing biodigesters construction, developing the private sector which constructs biodigesters and supporting biodigester users, the project intends to achieve, by the end of 2014, sustainable energy supply for at least 10,000 people (2,000 families) living in rural areas of Cambodia. Project sustainability will be achieved by systematic linkages between biodigester users and biodigester construction companies and (micro) finance institutions.
