The SimGas Solution
SimGas biogas systems are designed by SimGas BV, in The Netherlands. These systems will spark a revolution in the biogas business in (sub)tropical regions by providing unique, off-the-shelf biogas solutions.
Why SimGas?
- Affordable price:
The cost of buying and installing a biogas system is dramatically reduced, making biogas an affordable option for both urban and rural households in subtropical regions. Currently, brick and concrete biogas systems are expensive; due to the high costs of building materials, transport, and project management. With the SimGas system, the total cost of household biogas is reduced by half.
- Tailor made financial arrangements:
SimGas offers financial arrangements that are aligned with the clients’ unique financial situations, utilising a combination of a cash down payments and monthly payment instalments. A financial arrangement will last for a maximum of three years.
- Collateral:
The traditional location-fixed biogas systems cannot serve as collateral. SimGas systems can be removed and sold second-hand, reducing risks for creditors.
- Gold Standard Carbon Credits (CDM):
SimGas has partnered with Carbon Emission Rights (CER) traders to accredit our biogas implementation programme with Gold Standard CERs. The revenue from these CERs will be used to offer customers a discount on biogas systems.
- Transportable:
Thanks to our ready-to-assembly packaging technique, logistic costs are minimised and transportation in countries with limited infrastructure is made possible.
- Custom sizing:
The SimGas rural biogas system is designed to be modular and expandable. Rural systems range from 2 to 16 m3. System expansion (or contraction) may take place after initial installation. The SimGas urban biogas system is available in three sizes to meet the diverse needs of urban users.
- Quality:
SimGas biogas systems will last 20 years. Gas-tightness is guaranteed, so no methane will escape into the atmosphere.
- Branding:
SimGas is invested in building a strong brand identity. This is achieved through emphasis on local communities and the presence of female representatives. Domestic operators will be well trained and supported by our trained maintenance teams, ensuring that the SimGas brand is associated with quality and ease of use.
