African Diaspora Bioenergy Initiative

African Diaspora Bioenergy Initiative (ADBI) helps businesses in the United Kingdom and Nigeria turn organic waste into useful energy. Its Biowaste-to-Energy Service Company (BESCO) model brings together local and international partners to provide on-site systems, enabling businesses to reduce waste and energy costs while lowering carbon emissions. ADBI’s modular anaerobic digestion solutions are designed for organic trade effluent, wet agricultural residues, animal manure and slurry. For dry materials, including sawdust, wood shavings and dry agricultural residues, the company also offers biomass boilers.

ADBI’s compact, scalable systems are intended to fit a range of sites, with processing capacity that can expand as a business’s needs grow. The initiative works with vetted technology providers and finance partners to arrange tailored, multi-year service packages, potentially allowing businesses to proceed without upfront capital investment. Its solutions can also generate organic fertiliser as a potential revenue stream and may help businesses qualify for certain grants or green-finance opportunities. Through these services, ADBI aims to make waste a resource and support more sustainable business operations.
