Abstract
The economic development of any community or society at large is directly linked to energy availability and usage. Concern for climate change due to intense use of fossil fuel for energy
production has increased interest in alternative energy technologies such as biomass gasification. The system Johansson biomass gasifier at Melani village in Eastern Cape South Africa was piloted to establish the techno-economic viability of biomass gasification for electricity generation in South Africa. Besides this it was also implemented to improve the socio-economic
conditions of the community by providing them with low cost electricity that can drive small businesses such as a Bakery.
