Mesh grid innovation accelerates electricity access in rural #Haiti! Mesh grids offer decentralized renewable energy systems where households produce electricity from panels installed on their roof and use it to power their home, while allowing generation and use to be shared among nearby households – offering the backup which would have been provided by a grid. Alina Eneji is supported by the OGEF (Off-Grid Electricity Fund ) managed by Bamboo Capital Partners. Discover how Alina Eneji, using Okra Solar's technology and supported by The Global Energy Alliance for People and Planet (GEAPP) as well as OGEF (Off-Grid Electricity Fund ), is bringing access to electricity through mesh grids in rural #Haiti. #impactinvesting #solarenergy #SDG7
🚩 Only half of Haiti’s 🇭🇹 population has access to electricity. In rural areas, that figure drops to just 15%. Without power, economic development stalls. The Global Energy Alliance for People and Planet (GEAPP), Okra Solar and Alina Eneji are working to connect the hardest to reach with game changing mesh grid technology. Because when we change energy, we create economic opportunity, we change lives. ☀ #LetsChangeEnergy Eric Phillip Gay Nadia Todres Isabel Beltrán Vince Theo Driko Ducasse Indranil Roy
