The project was a pilot fo the Ready-to-Cook Biogas (RtCB) concept, which aimed at selling biogas rather than biogas digesters. MpfunekoCS has introduced biogas technology in villages near Giyani, which showed that there is good support from local communities for biogas. However, a more efficient way of introducing biogas in communities was desirable to facilitate replication. Investors  indicated that they were interested in supporting the Ready-To-Cook Biogas (RtCB) concept once it has been proven in practice. This pilot project seized the opportunity to do both at the same time: prove the concept in practice and experiment with ways to efficiently introduce RtCB in communities.
