DIESEL USAGE
Diesel generators were the primary power source throughout the construction period. Protocols were put in place to
reduce consumption as well as record overall usage to serve as a baseline comparison for future builds.
Site vehicles remain the largest consumer of diesel due to the remoteness of the construction site from the currently
operating CSU block in the south and the required daily transport of workers from Massingir. These rates are expected
to reduce on future builds, once the northern and central CSU’s are established.

WASTE
In July 2020, a recycling yard in Maputo was identified to process plastic, bottles, cans and papers. Waste was
sorted and weighed on-site and transported to Maputo on empty return trip delivery vehicles.
Adaptive ways to reuse construction waste in the local community were identified to divert waste from landfill.
These included:
• Cement bags were given to the community to be used to fill with clay and use from the construction of
homes and boundary fences
• Paint cans were used by local woman to carry water or goods from market
