Peat energy introduced in prisons

KIGALI - The National Prisons Service (NPS) has introduced the use of peat energy in prisons across the country as an alternative to firewood which is not only costly, but also destructive to the environment. Peat is vegetation matter that is carbonised to be used as either fertilizer or source of energy after decomposition.
