A new look for preservation:
“Waste no Waste, now you can green it!” is the motto of Green Gold Energy, which is based in Ouazzane, Morocco. It aims at preserving natural and sustainable resources. The company’s ecological outlook consists of the use of abandoned waste and developing organic biofuels, a new source of clean and sustainable energy based on the sawdust, coffee grounds and the pomace of olive, which are found easily and with low prices and high performance. It is an innovative and competitive start-up company that provides eco-friendly products to small industries and individuals in the Moroccan and African markets.
The project’s new product will replace wood waste that is characterized by its high energy content and low greenhouse gas emission. The new product emits 50% less greenhouse gas compared to coal and 35% compared to wood, while it has 30% more calorific value compared to both.
The company’s approach to green production is absolutely a big evolution that is able to change people’s perspectives about organic waste and influence them to reduce human waste. As a result of this new strategy, the company has guaranteed 10 employments in the first year after its inauguration, with a self-governing, autonomous and reliable way, including a major improvement of their incomes and social status.
To date, Green Gold Energy has developed one product in the form of densified logs, made of organic waste and the second product in the form of pellets, made of banal industrial waste. The initiative is committing to protect the environment and work with communities and large industries such as cement and brickwork. Its target segments are diverse, however, the one thing that unites them is the need to develop agricultural approaches that reduce environmental impacts while making the world a better, cleaner and greener place to live in.
