Turning waste into renewable energy
Recycling agricultural waste into biofuel cooking blocks.
“Nyasa Moto” means “Malawi fire”
Nyasa Moto is a biofuel block made by recycling agricultural waste from farmers and turning it into a high-quality cooking fuel. We make it with customers’ needs, lifestyles, and cultures in mind. From my own lived experience and research, we knew that a competitive price and increased efficiency were the biggest variables in creating a long-lasting solution for our target market.
Compared with wood fuel, Nyasa Moto burns up to three times longer, emits more heat, and most importantly, releases no toxic gas when it burns, providing local households with a safer alternative for cooking. The fuel is cleaner, more energy-efficient, and much cheaper, ensuring accessibility for all.
