Renewvia Energy’s Post

SolarRide Project We are happy to inform you that E-Safiri Charging Limited has received KShs. 31 Million (EUR 225,129) from Energy and Environment Partnership Trust Fund EEP Africa to support our transformative journey towards sustainable mobility, economic empowerment, and environmental stewardship in Africa. The “SolarRide" project is a visionary initiative along the shores of Lake Victoria, at Dunga beach in Kisumu and Kiumba beach in Mbita, Homabay targeting small businesses such as fish vendors and riders, as well as organized women groups engaged in agricultural activities within rural communities. Recognizing the prevalence of high operating costs resulting from increased fuel prices that burdens small businesses relying on traditional internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles. The funding for the "SolarRide" project will provide affordable and sustainable transportation solutions to enhance the quality of life for rural and peri-urban residents. By facilitating access to essential services such as healthcare, education, employment, and recreation. This project aims at creating a positive ripple effect that uplifts entire communities.

How do you define success in fighting climate change? For Africa GreenTec's Managing Director, Moritz Brauchle, it’s about scaling their clean energy projects across Madagascar, taking pride in his team’s achievements, and witnessing long-term change in communities. For us, success means empowering remote communities to harness solar power for economic growth, climate resilience, and improved living standards. It means attracting diverse financing and strong partnerships to make more distributed renewable energy projects viable in underserved areas. See Moritz’s view from our latest successful project in Mahasolo—it’s all about teamwork that transforms lives and environments. #SDG7 #FinancingEnergyProsperity #SustainableDevelopment #SolarPower #CleanEnergy #EnergyAccess #offgridsolar #minigrids #energydevelopment #COP29 Anita Otubu Abdulmumini Yakubu Harry Gibson Francesco Bisleti Inès Rachel Dushime Tavernier Louis Getty Kasole The Global Energy Alliance for People and Planet (GEAPP), The Rockefeller Foundation, IKEA Foundation, Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH, Power Africa, Shell Foundation, The Carbon Trust , Good Energies Foundation, Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office, Africa Minigrid Developers Association (AMDA) , Bezos Earth Fund,

🌟 Local Innovation, Global Impact 🌟 At Renewvia, we are continually inspired by the power of local initiatives to drive significant global impact. A prime example of this is our partnership with Yelele, a remarkable mini-grid owned and operated by Francis Ngimusia, a visionary entrepreneur from Turkana, Kenya. 🌍 Under Francis' leadership, this cornerstone of community development and empowerment in Turkana has become more than an energy provider; it's a source of pride and progress for the local community. This impactful project is supported by the generous funding from Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH, AECF, KKCF - Kakuma Kalobeyei Challenge Fund, IFC - International Finance Corporation, an Agence Française de Développement, whose contributions have been pivotal in bringing renewable energy solutions to underserved communities. 🌱 As part of our recent transaction with SteelFab, Inc., we are thrilled to include Mini-Grid Carbon Credits (MCCs) generated by Yelele. These credits are certified through Renewvia's rigorous processes, adhering to international standards while supporting grassroots renewable energy projects. 💡 Francis’ dedication to sustainable energy solutions and community upliftment exemplifies the potential of local enterprises to contribute meaningfully to global sustainability goals. By integrating these projects into the broader carbon credit market, Renewvia helps ensure that local heroes like Francis receive the recognition and economic benefit they deserve. 🤝 We are proud to support Yelele and are committed to empowering similar initiatives across the globe. It's through partnerships like these that we can turn local action into worldwide impact, one community at a time. #solarprogress #sdg7 #renewableenergy #renewableinvestment #cleanenergy #carboncredits #SteelFab #steelfabrication #corporatedecarbonization #kenya #minigrids #ruralelectrification #energyaccess #offgridsolar

At Themis, we are not only pioneering innovative renewable projects across Africa but also providing advisory services to our partners. Currently, we are proud to support #ElectricidadeDeMoçambique EDM at the request of #SwedFund. 🚀 We are excited to share that our team members, @Marc Mandaba and @Henri Argenson, recently conducted a highly impactful workshop in Maputo. This event focused on establishing a Disaster Resiliency and Response Fund, in collaboration with Sweco and potential donors, including #SwedishEmbassy, #Norway, #AFD, and the #EU. 🤝 This fruitful exchange brought together a diverse group of experts and stakeholders, all united by a common goal: enhancing Mozambique's ability to manage and respond to natural disasters while implementing Climate Change Adaptation solutions. The workshop marked a significant step forward in this critical initiative, aiming to bolster the country's resilience and ensure a swift, effective, and proactive response to cyclone-related damages. We are immensely proud of the progress made and deeply grateful for the invaluable contributions from all participants. Together, we are making strides towards a safer, more resilient Mozambique. #Mozambique #SustainableDevelopment Africa #Themis #EDM #Sweco #Consultancy #Renewable Project Africa #Adpatation #ClimateChange
