How we create impact

Energy access

Mini-grids, solar home systems and institutional power for communities the grid has not reached, built with the European Union and GIZ Energising Development.

Health

Reliable electricity for hospitals, operating rooms, laboratories and vaccine cold chains, built to keep going where the stakes are highest.

Livelihoods

Solar water pumping, agro-processing and clean cooking that turn energy into income, anchored by the locally manufactured TOLO induction stove and farmer-friendly pump financing.

Skills and jobs

University students, TVET technicians and refugee communities trained and employed, backed by the Ethiopia Jobs Challenge Fund (MoLS/KfW) and the TRANSFORM programme (Unilever, FCDO, EY), with manufacturing jobs growing as stove production scales.
