From powering communities to empowering livelihoods
This case study examines NRECA International's efforts to implement productive use of renewable electricity (PURE) in Guatemala and Zambia. It finds that infrastructure alone is insufficient; success requires capacity development, trust, and appropriate financing. In Guatemala, technical assistance helped young women increase revenue by over 30%. In Zambia, zero-cost lease agreements for a solar-powered agro-processing hub led to a 38% margin in energy cost savings over diesel. These findings are now informing future projects in Haiti.
