(b) Roll-out (50-50): US$160,000
2. Support for Installation of non-Biogas RET for
Roll out or existing supply chains: Capacity
development; top-up to the IGRF; and
demonstration of RET applications.

5. 3. Support for bio-digester Installations: Strengthening of NBP
marketing strategy and after-sales service, Top up to the IGRF;
development of innovative applications for bio-digester energy; and
demonstration.

6. Component 2: Policy Support for Climate
Resilience and RET in Agriculture

visit and discuss policy options for mainstreaming climate resilience
and promoting use of RET in the agriculture sector;
2. Policy Studies: supports at least three policy studies relevant to
scaling up of adoption of RET in the agriculture sector;
3. Knowledge Management and Policy Dialogue:
