  • Use the local indicator parameters for assessment (as indicated by stakeholders e.g. more vegetation die-down, dustiness, reduced vegetative cover).
  • Do energy consumption level graphs for firewood and compare biogas usage to these.
  • Inventorize ability to adopt biogas.
  • Inventorize need for other forms of assistance to continue/expand the biogas as an alternative energy source.
  • Inventorize direct and indirect benefits of the biogas plant by stakeholders, including multiplier effects.
  • Assess the time and distance taken to collect firewood by mode of transport.
