A new era of clean & efficient cooking is here! The BDS Stove is a revolutionary new technology, the first of its kind in Kenya, designed to transform your cooking experience, & guess what? You can get yours for just Ksh 1,500!.A smarter, cleaner & more sustainable way of cooking

In Sibembe, Busia County, we led farmers through a hands-on biochar training. Farmers also learned inoculation & application techniques, while the group supervisor was trained on the DMRV app to ensure accuracy & transparency in tracking production.

We led Elukala farmers in a biochar production training, showing how farm residues can be turned into biochar that enriches soils, boosts yields & locks away CO₂. We also trained the groups’ supervisor on DMRV to ensure accurate tracking & reporting of biochar production.

Our biochar initiative now has an official name — Kongolo Biochar Project! . Named after Shikongolo (Luhya for millipede), it reflects Kakamega Forest’s rich culture & biodiversity. The project drives permanent CO₂ removal, better livelihoods & healthier soils.

Alongside the @myclimate team, we visited Kakamega Forest to see how improved cookstoves are helping the forest regenerate, creating jobs, improving livelihoods & reducing illegal activities. Sustainable solutions mean thriving people & forests!

Together with the @myclimate team, we paid a courtesy call to the Kakamega @KWSKenya offices. The meeting provided an opportunity to strengthen our partnership & elaborate on our shared commitment to conservation and sustainable community impact.

We are honored to host a team from @myclimate led by Irina Ignat, Team Lead Marketing, who are visiting our Stoves for Life Project in Western Kenya. Their mission: due diligence + learning how clean cookstoves are transforming communities & protecting the environment.

We proudly showcased our commitment to sustainable cooking solutions at the Clean Cooking Energy Conference in Nairobi. Engaging with innovators, policymakers & partners, we continue to champion cleaner, healthier & more efficient energy technologies that transform communities.

Our biochar not only provides permanent CO₂ removal but also boosts local livelihoods through sustainable biomass management, job creation & farmer training. By protecting & enhancing soil biodiversity, we ensure healthy soils thrive with a rich web of life. #biochar

In Kakamega Forest, @eco2libriumllc, @KWSKenya, @WRTIKenya, with local communities, are tracking vegetation & bird trends through the Permanent Biodiversity Monitoring Plots Project. These insights guide conservation & show how climate & human activity shape biodiversity.

The @kirdi_kenya team carried out Water Boiling and ISO tests on our Improved Institutional Stove installed in schools. These rigorous evaluations ensure our technology meets the highest performance & efficiency standards—bringing cleaner & more sustainable cooking solutions.

In Bungoma County, our team engaged farmers from Manyasa and Sokomoko villages in a meeting on biochar production and its benefits for sustainable farming. Together, we explored how biochar can improve soil health, boost crop yields, and support climate resilience.

The @kirdi_kenya team is currently conducting Water Boiling and ISO tests on the Upesi Stove. These tests are crucial in evaluating the stove’s performance, fuel efficiency & emission levels, ensuring it meets international standards while supporting healthier kitchens.

We met with farmers in Mukhonje (Kakamega County) & Obuheri (Busia County) to share insights on the biochar project an innovative climate-smart solution that turns agricultural waste into a valuable resource for improving soil health, boosting yields & reducing carbon emissions.

In Kaambi Village, Bungoma County, the @eco2libriumllc team conducted a hands-on training on biochar production using the DMRV mobile application — a cutting-edge digital tool for accurate data collection and real-time monitoring in biochar projects.

We conducted a hands-on training session for farmer supervisors on the DMRV mobile application—a digital tool designed to support accurate data collection and real-time monitoring in biochar production. With this innovation, we're making climate-smart farming more transparent.

Yesterday, our team conducted a refresher training for the Climate Shock Survey in Siaya County as part of our Quarter 3 fieldwork. The session aimed to equip our field enumerators with updated skills and tools to effectively assess the impact of extreme weather events.

We had the honour of hosting @EarthlungsF and a delegation from China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC). We explored a potential partnership focused on bamboo value chain investments in Kenya. Looking forward to building impactful, long-term collaborations!

We conducted a practical biochar production exercise with farmers from the Milimani Kusavali area — empowering them with sustainable farming knowledge to boost soil health & crop yields. The group supervisor was also trained on using the DMRV mobile application.

The serialization of the first batch of Upesi Jikos is complete & are now ready for distribution!.These cookstoves are designed to use less firewood, cook faster & support cleaner, healthier living. Get yours now for just Ksh 160. Make your order today and enjoy the benefits.

We had a fruitful engagement with farmers from Eshiakhulo and Mwitoti villages as part of our ongoing efforts to create awareness about biochar — a sustainable solution for healthier soils, improved yields, and climate resilience.
