REASON FOR BEGIN

Abellon’s core purpose is to increase energy

access globally in a sustainable manner.

Energy access is a key driver to create

economic growth and helps people emerge from

poverty into the mainstream economy. This

objective needs to be achieved in a manner that is

environmentally and financially sustainable,

promotes energy independence

and is good for local communities. Abellon’s

mission is to find innovative solutions achieving

all these objectives by combining knowledge from

diverse disciplines and aligning efforts with local

stakeholders.

Pellets – An improved cooking fuel

Pellets are Eco-friendly carbon neutral, Solid

Biofuel.

Pellets are small "nuggets" of compressed

agricultural and forest waste including wood waste.

A wide variety of biomass can be utilized to make

bio-pellets like cornstalks, straw, residual forest

waste, etc.

It is a refined and densified biomass fuel that allows

remarkable consistency and burning efficiency at

substantially lower particulate emissions.
