Bio2Watt Malmesbury Thermal Power Station

Bio2Watt Malmesbury Thermal Power Station is a 4.8 MW (6, 400 hp) biogas-fired thermal power plant under development in South Africa. Bio2Watt, a South African company, entirely owned by Black women, has signed a power purchase agreement (PPA) to supply 4.8 megawatts of electricity to South African Breweries (SAB) for use in their brewery near Cape Town. As raw material, the power station is designed to start with animal manure and urine, produced by 7,000 head of cattle at Morester's Vyvlei Dairy Farm. These will be supplemented by other organic waste, collected from farms and businesses in the nearby town of Malmesbury. The raw material will be digested anaerobically to produce industrial-grade biogas. The biogas will then be ignited to produce heat. That heat will be used to turn electric generators and produce electricity.
