Renewable Energy for Improving Rural Healthcare

Introduction 

We will be working with off-grid communities in Nepal to improve the healthcare provided through introducing renewable energy. Getting communities off the grid will allow them to be sustainable and independent, whilst making sure it is affordable for all.

Report 

This project equips locals with solar power and electrical equipment for lighting, fans, nebulisers and refrigeration for medicines and vaccines. It will also build the capacity of local artisans to construct and roll-out the use of improved, energy efficient cookstoves, across the communities for cleaner cookstoves and supporting those who are least able to purchase them. Our environment is in crisis, it is a problem for all of us. In Nepal every year around 8,500 women and children die from the effects of polluting cooking stoves.
