Coconut Oil - Papua New Guinea

  • The people of Bougainville have come up with their own solution to the energy crisis -- coconut oil. It's cheap, plentiful and doesn't pollute. Little wonder other countries, are considering importing it.
    From priests to the police force, locals are making the switch to coconut fuel. "There's no difference in performance and you don't have to do anything different to your car", states one consumer. Bougainville hopes to export coconut fuel to other countries. Unfortunately, in cooler climates, coco-fuels solidify and requires the addition of diesel.

    Reminds me of the story of August Engelhardt, who migrated to PNG from Germany over 100 years ago.
    Anyhow, I congratulate you for the innovation and your attitude in trying to sustain our people's lives in Bougainville

    Bougainville is formerly administered by Germany Empire in the early 20th Century. Not surprised to see Germans in Bougainville as well. Germans were great innovators.

    Diesel had originally intended that his engine run on peanut oil. Sadly Diesel "disappeared" mysteriously.

    That is a good idea, only if they could fidure out a way for coconut oil to not solidify so easily.

    @heyerstandards A key take-away with this story is that their solution is vitally **local**. It works for them, in their climate, in their circumstances, in their economy. Each of our localities also need to explore alternatives for what works for us.

    Even if we don't use coconut oil in the future for cars, it shows that we aren't as dependant as we might assume on our current car fuels. I hope more and more things like this are experimented with, and hopefully we will find a new means. I know they have electricity too but this seems much more widely available.

    @htia075 Geographically its within the Solomon archipelago but yea, its partof PNG. Thats what I meant and please refrain from calling names.

    hemp, corn, coconut oil whatever, this is the future. Im surprised more 3rd world countries havent tried to go more bio-diesel for energy. This is like modernization in a can, and they would bring positive outside media to their nation as well unlike fossil fuels etc. It drives up the cost of food, but when thats all you are capable of producing, isnt that a good thing?

    Is there a way to keep coconut oil from thickening at lower temps without adding diesel?
