Greenergia K Ltd.'s water hyacinth harvester has been rehabilitated and is ready to be tested in the waters of Lake Victoria. With water hyacinth arriving in plenty in the bay since June this year, we are looking forward to a good harvest.

After removal of the water hyacinth from the water, it will be sun dried and processed into fuel pellets and briquettes for use in the W2E adoption trial.
