In 2007, ANSAB designed and piloted a biomass based energy project at entire value chain level with the objectives of substantially increasing the demand for community-produced bio-briquettes in targeted markets of Kathmandu; enhancing the production capacities of rural processing enterprises to meet the new demand and increase their revenues; integrating or creating processing enterprises in the rural areas to meet the new demand; conserving more hectares of forests and improve more livelihoods; and developing a platform in Kathmandu for marketing of the briquettes.
