Environmental Impact Assessment CBEND Project
The Desert Research Foundation of Namibia (DRFN) is implementing a project entitled Combating Bush Encroachment for Namibia's Development (CBEND), which aims at converting invader bush, largely seen as an environmental problem especially in commercial farming areas, to electricity through bio-gasification. The project will thus establish a 250 kW electricity generation plant and feed electricity into the national grid. Fuel for the plant will be derived from harvested invader bush with the emphasis on bush thinning (at a rate of 20% to 50%) rather than bush clearing.
