Biogas generator

by Becky Parker

Science and climate change have always been some of Alex’s main interests, and when she joined STEM club she learned through research that she could make a small impact herself. The idea she came up with was to build a biogas generator for the school, which when it is built will enable the school to produce its own carbon neutral and environmentally sustainable energy.

In the coming years, once it is well established, the generator will provide electricity and help lower the school’s carbon emissions.
