Innovative energy systems for sustainable economic, environmental, and social development.
Winrock’s clean, renewable energy programs ignite economic development, and improvements in health care, education, and living
standards. From small portable units to grid-connected systems, Winrock’s work focuses on building the skills of communities and organizations, and the
operational framework necessary to exploit fully the opportunities electricity brings. Our work extends from feasibility studies, project design, and financing
mechanisms to enterprise development, maintenance, and training. Winrock has helped bring 4 billion kWh of electricity to power grids in developing nations
and installed 70,000+ portable renewable energy systems.
