• Project objectives
• To establish two perennial training platforms for
  biomass technologies
• Networking two wide regions in Africa
• having specific energy needs and potentials
• where quantities of biomasses available and
  processes used differ

3
Project platforms

• Dry zone countries Burkina Faso
• mainly devoted to drying application
• biomass mainly agro-based residues
• hybridisation of solar thermal with biomass
  combustion technology
• overcome barrier related to fuel seasonality and
  take the best from two renewable resources
• Wet zone countries Cameroon
• devoted to rural electricity production
• biomass generally largely available
• large plant capacity

4
Project outcomes

• Capacity building outcomes
• A review and assessment of representative plant
• A directory about expert organisations and
  professionals
• A training module set up and included in
  graduation courses
• Training sessions implemented (10)
• International conference and exhibition
• Technology transfer outcomes
• New biomass projects implemented based on the
  technologies promoted,
• Reinforcement of associated SMEs capacity
• Dissemination of information on efficient biomass
  energy technology
