Tamuwa, founded in 2015, is a Kenyan company at the forefront of the renewable energy sector in Africa. Its primary focus is on converting agricultural waste, specifically sugarcane bagasse, into a sustainable and affordable energy source. By producing high-density briquettes and pellets, Tamuwa provides a clean alternative to traditional fuels like firewood and charcoal, addressing issues of deforestation and promoting a circular economy.
The company's core service is the production and distribution of these biomass briquettes, which have a high calorific value and low moisture content, making them an efficient fuel source for industrial and domestic use. Tamuwa has also developed the CYNK platform, a digital end-to-end solution for the measurement, reporting, verification, and trading of high-quality voluntary emissions reductions (VERs). This platform is designed to bring trust and transparency to the carbon offset market, enabling local communities and projects to gain greater financial benefit from their environmental initiatives.
The CYNK platform is built on the Hedera network, leveraging its high-throughput, low-cost, and energy-efficient distributed ledger technology. This integration allows Tamuwa to digitize and tokenize verified emissions reductions, creating a secure and transparent marketplace for carbon credits.
