Pumpkin power for phone networks in Africa

October 12th, 2006 6:30 pm by SiLent_Man

Palm and pumpkin seed oil could soon be generating electricity to help power mobile phone networks across Africa under a plan to replace fossil fuels with sustainable biofuels made from crops grown by local farmers.

Supported by the GSM Association’s development fund, they will start with a project in Nigeria to use biofuels for power generators supplying mobile base stations located beyond the reach of the electricity grid.

“We’re planning to replicate this in Uganda, Rwanda and Kenya. India and Bangladesh have also expressed interest,” said Ben Soppitt, programme manager emerging markets at the GSM Association (GSMA).
