Gigawatt Global

Invest in expanding access to clean energy and create lasting opportunities for communities across Africa.

Meaningful impact begins with strong community relationships and supporting visionary sustainable initiatives.

The Abundance Initiative:

Empowering Rural Uganda through Renewable Energy & Agriculture

The Abundance Initiative provides solar-powered agro-processing & education centers in Uganda’s Kyenjojo District and beyond. It’s a flagship model of sustainable community development rolled out by Gigawatt Global, a founding partner of the U.S. PowerAfrica program, and Gigawatt Impact, with our partners.

Following our successful utility-scale solar fields in East Africa, Abundance is locally-led and operated, in conjunction with community leaders and several regional NGOs

Impact-investor Michael Lustig chooses Gigawatt Global:

“Gigawatt is a rare company that creates projects with a quadruple bottom-line, maximizing and magnifying impact: Environmental (clean power), Social (power for the underserved), Financial (project revenue), and Prosperity for the local communities (construction and maintenance jobs, with field revenue covering medical, water, and educational needs).”

“The world ought to put its weight behind
risk-takers like Gigawatt, and help them scale”

— Bono, at the inauguration of Gigawatt’s solar field at the Agahozo-Shalom Youth Village in Rwanda, August 2015
