Abstract: This study considers data on theoretical potentials from 13 selected groups of biomass available from the agro-industrial business in Kenya and for municipal solid waste in Nairobi. Since the data is necessarily incomplete, and since future potentials are not considered, the actual potential could well be higher. Most promising sectors for electricity production from biogas from anaerobic digestion based on this study are Municipal solid waste, Sisal and Coffee production.
