Mava

Transforming waste into clean, affordable energy

Mava is revolutionising energy access in informal settlements by converting organic waste into biogas.

Using modular biodigesters, we provide clean, safe, and affordable cooking gas to underserved communities, improving quality of life and promoting sustainable living.

WHAT WE DO

Our innovative approach turns organic waste into a valuable resource. By producing biogas and selling it in affordable units, we ensure that clean energy is accessible to those who need it most. This not only reduces reliance on harmful cooking fuels but also addresses waste management challenges in these communities.

WHY IT MATTERS

Access to clean cooking energy is vital for health, safety, and environmental sustainability. Mava’s solution empowers communities by offering a cleaner, safer alternative while contributing to a circular economy that benefits both people and the planet.

Focus Areas

Urbanisation: Infrastructure & Resilience
