Using the inmates\u2019 poop, these jails are slowly turning away from fossil-fuel reliance and burning wood, and the move is indeed a favor to the environment. 75% energy requirements of about 14 prisons in the country will now use energy derived from human and animal waste. Using Biogas burners for the same, these prisons are setting a standard for those around the globe to follow suit, turning towards more sustainable energy sources. The Nsinda prison in particular has 8,000 inmates who fuel the facility with sewage from the 24 toilets along with cow dung. Currently, a part of the prison\u2019s energy comes from burning wood, and the authorities hope to wipe out these practices completely in the near future.<br \/>\n[<a href=\"http:\/\/inhabitat.com\/rwandas-poo-powered-prisons-are-75-fueled-by-burning-inmates-waste\/\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow external noopener noreferrer\">inhabitat<\/a>]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jails in Rwanda are now turning towards an eco-friendly way of powering up.
