In Ghana, the UNDP is helping India’s Abellon CleanEnergy to develop a major biomass energy project that will give jobs to 21,000 farmers and 4,000 others in the processing side. The project will grow biomass on 10,000 hectares of derelict land. By 2015 a power plant will be built in the Ashanti region that will power up to 100,000 homes, but until then the pellets will be exported to the US and Europe.
