We are transforming lives and unlocking potential through access to energy and other utilities worldwide. To date, we have positively impacted over one million lives and helped to make progress on a host of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
We recognise that electricity is the entry point to other utilities and value-added services that would never have been possible without the prerequisite of electricity. Energy provision creates demand in other areas – such as gas, water, internet and finance – a demand which we also seek to meet.
Urgency is required to meet the UN’s SDG global targets for 2030. As a leading next generation utility, we directly contribute to SGD 7 – ensuring access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all.
When our customers switch from kerosene and other fuels to clean energy, this also brings average annual savings of $200 per household.
