Inclusive Access to Energy for Underserved Communities

TARGETING THE MARGINALIZED

Some communities in the region are often marginalized because of their location. PIND has championed community-centered projects that include solar energy mini-grids and solar-powered freezers. In 2021, 2,070 people of all abilities, ages, and genders in the poorest Niger Delta communities received access to renewable energy for the first time. These marginalized persons who were given access came from 645 households and businesses. Of the people given renewable energy for the first time, 1,283 were women.
