Angola: Angola's Sweet Success

Categories: Sub-Saharan Africa, Angola, Development, Economics & Business

Mark and Jana blogs about Angola's sweet success [1]: “Around 70% of Biocom’s sugar cane is turned into sugar. The remaining 30% is used for ethanol and the production of electricity. Electric power is produced by burning sugar cane waste. The vapour released during the process is channelled into a high-pressure turbine. The energy that is generated as a result can light up a city of up to 400,000 people, Biocom says.”
