Organization Details
At present, approximately 2.6 billion individuals worldwide are still dependent on charcoal, kerosene, and firewood for their cooking needs. The ensuing health and environmental ramifications are nothing short of alarming. Safi Africa Energy is dedicated to addressing this crisis through our innovative pay-as-you-go system, which ensures the delivery of clean LPG to urban households, thereby promoting safety and sustainability.
Our smart IoT meter facilitates hassle-free PAYG dispensation of clean cooking gas, supported by a top-tier engineering team and strategic collaborations with key industry stakeholders. Notably recognized by respected entities such as the Clean Cooking Alliance and Sustainable Energy for All, Safi Africa Energy provides a distinctive opportunity for investors to engender a profound societal impact while attaining substantial commercial returns.
Impact Story
Sustainable Africa Energy Scenario: In 2022, the IEA outlined the Sustainable Africa (Energy) Scenario, envisioning that by 2030, one-third of homes will use LPG, 10% will use electricity, 10% biogas, and 6% alcohol fuels. However, 41% would still rely on solid biomass. Achieving this scenario requires a monumental effort to improve clean cooking access in sub-Saharan Africa.
LPG: The Ready Solution: Among cleaner fuels, LPG stands out as the most viable option. It's popular, meets household needs, is easy to store and transport, and is already available in the necessary quantities. The infrastructure, with millions of cylinders and storage depots, is already in place in every country. Many governments are prioritizing the rapid scale-up of LPG to ensure cleaner cooking and forest protection, while also investing in renewables like Green LPG.
Smart IoT Meter Revolution: Our Safi Africa Energy Smart IoT Dispensing Meter, Kibo, is designed to play a key role in allowing families to access clean LPG for as little as $0.25 per day on a pay-as-you-go (PAYG) basis. This innovative solution makes clean cooking more accessible and affordable, especially for households that couldn't previously afford the initial cost of a cylinder and a full charge of LPG. With the Kibo smart meter, families receive the LPG, cylinder, and stove with no upfront cost, paying only for the gas they use on a pay-per-cook basis. Additionally, this solution enables advanced Digital Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification (DMRV) of emission reductions for Carbon Credits, further contributing to environmental sustainability.
