Waterfalls Pumps (Hydram & Turbines) and Biogas Plant
Use of natural resources to empower the community in poverty reduction by use of waterfall pumps and bigas plant
We majors in renewable energy products which includes
- waterfall pumps – pumping water using water
- Biogas Plants – Converting organic waste to economic asset
The above products are one time investment with long term continuous benefits with no running cost. They products are very marketable since they provides a solution to everyday challenge (Water, irrigation, cooking energy, lighting and sanitation solution).

The Business
1)Waterfall Pumps (Hydram & Turbine)
The pumps uses the energy of a falling water from a waterfall to pumps water over a hilly place for domestic or irrigation purpose without using any other external energy like Fuel, electricity or human power. .
a)Hydram (Hydraulic Ram Pumps)
b)Cross-flow Turbines water pump
2)Biogas Plants construction, supply of biogas lamps, cookers, biogas generators and water heaters
Waterfall pumps - cost effective supply of water for domestic & commercial purpose at no running cost
Biogas Plant- supply of energy for cooking and lighting (biogas) and sanitation solution for family toilet
Waterfall Pumps
By designing and fabricating the pumps using locally available materials.
Biogas Plant -
Constructing the plant using concrete and stones. Fixed dome type
Marketing stratergy:-
-Radio & news paper advertisement
-Promotions & awareness tours to farmers
-Word of mouth networking marketing
-Doing a quality job & exceeding customer expectation hence making them unofficial marketing team
Distribution stratergy
Our product distribution shall be as follows
-Through our main office in Nairobi
-Opening branches in major towns
-Liasing with existing supermarkets to acts as sell off points
Our main targeted market are
1) small scale farmers (For Hydram & small – medium biogas plant for cooking & Lighting)
2) Large scale farmers ( for Turbine driven water pump & Large scale biogas plant for power generation )
3) organized community groups. (For turbine driven water pumps & Mega Biogas plant for energy kiosk
Trends of competition
The commonly used water pumps are
1) Fuel powered with about 30%
2) Electricity powered at 25%
3) Human and animal powered at 10%,
4) Gravity free flow at 3%,
5) Waterfall pumps & turbine driven 2%
6) Unexploited market 30%
Our market share is about 30% of an exploited market but still we are targeting 20% from market shared by Fuel and electricity powered pumps our main competitors
The unique selling points for waterfall pumps and biogas plants are
-No running cost
-Low one time investment
-Products high quality & reliability
-Waste management
- clean energy (natural resources)
- automatic and continuous operation
- no running cost
- use of natural resources
- convention of waste resource to economic assets (Biogas)
- Clean energy - no pollution to environment
We shall ensure continuous growth by
- Quality and reliable products
- Good marketing startegy
- good distribution network
- awareness campaign in use of natural resource in poverty eradication
The Entrepreneur & Management
I am a mechanical engineering diploma graduate, am hard working, visionary and result oriented person. My interest in potential in renewable energy has driven me to a lot of research in this field and come up with product which are highly reliable and self reliance. The renewable sector has the potential to empower community in poverty reduction.
Watering a working nation and cows to kilowatts
I am trained mechanical engineer (Diploma) which gave me a firm foundation to develop a career in renewable sector. I have 5 years experience dealing with waterfall pumps and 2 years dealing with biogas plants. I have a wide experience & training in customer care & selling skills having work in motor industries as service advisor & service manager.
8 hours per day 6 days a week. I have being in this business full time and shall continue as full time.
Development
Through use of natural resource product the community is enlightened, the environment is preserved through:
-No pollution caused by fuel water pumps
-No destruction of forest by families looking for firewood instead use of biogas
-Encouragement of forestation through affordable irrigation (waterfall pumps) hence preventing climate change & soil erosion.
- community will come together to work for a common good
