Background of the Project

The African Biodigester Component (ABC) project aims to support the growth and sustainability of a commercial biodigester sector in Uganda. The project will facilitate the installation of at least 8,000 small-scale biodigesters (household level) to enable energy access of at least 40,000 people. This intervention intends to support Uganda's developed Biomass strategy, which promotes alternative and modern cooking technologies to reduce the country's unsustainable demand for firewood and charcoal such as Biogas technology, briquettes, and bioethanol, among others.

In Uganda, Project Activities (2022 to 2025) are coordinated by SNV as the lead implementer, in collaboration with GIZ, a consortium partner and Biogas Solutions Uganda Limited as the national Implementer with technical backstopping from the Ministry of Energy and Mineral development. ABC is funded by the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs RVO and in partnership with EnDev.

ABC takes a market-based approach, focusing on developing and strengthening demand, supply, and the enabling environment. This is to facilitate the biodigester market transition from the pioneering phase to the expansion phase; with the goal of increasing demand and supporting small-scale and medium scale biodigester companies in acquiring more clients.

SNV Netherlands Development Organization in Uganda (SNV) wishes to procure the services of a duly registered auditing firm to perform an independent audit of the statement of financial position for the period from November 1, 2021, to December 31, 2022, for the “African Biodigester component (ABC)” project, which is funded by The Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Managed by Netherlands Development Agency (RVO).
