Chardust Ltd. is an alternative energy company headquartered in Nairobi, Kenya. We've developed innovative techniques to convert biomass wastes into low-cost charcoal briquettes. We sell over 200 tonnes per month into institutional and domestic markets in Kenya, displacing an equivalent amount of unsustainably harvested lumpwood charcoal. At the same time as providing a cheaper energy alternative, this contributes to job creation, waste recycling and environmental conservation.

At Chardust we also manufacture water heaters that use our briquettes, enabling savings of over 70% to be made over water heated with electricity.
