KiloWatts for Humanity

In light of recent shifts in USAID funding priorities, KiloWatts for Humanity wishes to reaffirm our unwavering commitment to our mission of eradicating energy poverty. Thanks to the continued and generous support of our private donors, KWH operates independently. This independence ensures that we maintain long-term stability and reliability in our projects, allowing us to consistently serve our partners, communities, and volunteers. We are dedicated to providing sustainable energy solutions for years to come, regardless of fluctuations in federal funding

ELECTRIFICATION

KiloWatts for Humanity provides first-time access to electrification where it is needed most. From site assessment and fundraising to technical design and proper training, we provide complete renewable energy solutions that are life-changing and sustainable.

SUSTAINABLE

BUSINESS

We partner with in-country NGO’s and work together to develop sustainable business models for a variety of electricity-based services.
Whether it be cell phone charging, ice making, or access to information, each
business is custom designed for the community it serves.

Productive Use of Electricity

Milling grain, pumping water, freezing food, repairing farm equipment. When electricity is used in productive ways, its impact is multiplied. Each KWH energy kiosk serves about 1000 people in the local area, with many more coming from surrounding areas to access these services. 

EDUCATION

We offer a unique opportunity for university students and industry professionals to contribute to the design and implementation of sustainable energy projects.

We regularly publish and present our results and lessons learned to help the broader energy 

development

 community and spread awareness of energy poverty.
