Message from the C.E.O

As we continue to navigate the challenges and opportunities within the energy sector, it becomes increasingly evident that innovative solutions are essential to address the pressing needs of our communities. Today, I want to draw our attention specifically to the vital issue of last-mile cooking gas delivery in Africa.

Access to clean cooking solutions is not just a matter of convenience; it’s a fundamental aspect of improving livelihoods and promoting sustainable development across the continent. Despite significant strides in expanding access to liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), the last-mile delivery remains a persistent challenge, hindering its widespread adoption and impact.

We stand at a critical juncture where traditional delivery models no longer suffice. It’s imperative that we leverage innovation to overcome logistical barriers and ensure that every household has access to clean and efficient cooking energy. This calls for collaborative efforts and out-of-the-box thinking from all stakeholders involved.

Innovation in last-mile delivery encompasses a wide range of possibilities, from leveraging technology for efficient route planning and tracking to developing alternative distribution channels tailored to local contexts. We must also explore partnerships with local communities, governments, and financiers to create sustainable solutions that address the unique challenges faced in different regions.

At Rungas, we are committed to being at the forefront of this effort. We recognize the importance of our role as a catalyst for change and are actively pursuing initiatives to drive innovation in last-mile cooking gas delivery. However, we cannot do this alone. We need the collective expertise, resources, and dedication of all stakeholders to turn this vision into reality.

I urge you to join us in this endeavor. Let us work together to harness the power of innovation and create a future where clean cooking energy is accessible to all, transforming lives and communities across Africa.

Thank you for your continued support and partnership.
