🌍 Empowering Communities & Optimizing Infrastructure with Vienga 🌊
At Vienga, we’re pioneering a two-pronged approach to revolutionize hydropower by tackling energy challenges in off-grid communities and infrastructure systems worldwide.
🔑 Our Dual Focus:
1️⃣ Sub-Saharan Africa: With over 600 million people lacking access to electricity, our modular turbines provide a cost-effective and sustainable solution for rural microgrids. By 2030, 200,000 microgrids are expected to emerge, and Vienga is set to power them with innovative, low-head hydropower technology.
2️⃣ In-Pipe Discharge Systems: Across developed markets like the EU, USA, and Far East, Vienga’s devices unlock untapped wasted energy in industrial and municipal water infrastructure, providing a sustainable alternative to decarbonise these facilities.
💡 Why Vienga?
Massive Market Opportunity: A $225 billion global market for micro hydro devices under 20kW.
Proven Cost Efficiency: Our solution outperforms diesel, solar PV, and wind, offering electricity as low as $0.15/kWh.
Environmentally Friendly: Each Vienga device saves 40 tons of CO2 annually compared to diesel generators.
Scalability: From rural communities in Sub-Saharan Africa to industrial applications globally, our technology is ready to create impact at scale.
📢 We’re Raising £1,000,000
This investment will fund field testing in Uganda, product development, and our market expansion into global infrastructure systems. With a pre-money valuation of £5 million, we invite you to join us in redefining the future of renewable energy.
Together, we can bridge the energy gap in underserved regions and optimize energy use in developed markets, creating a truly sustainable future.
