Africa, a continent rich in natural resources, still grapples with energy poverty. Over 600 million individuals in sub-Saharan Africa lack access to electricity, with rural areas being particularly aected. Nigeria, as the largest country in Africa, faces unique energy challenges despite its abundance of oil resources.
Outdated infrastructure, inadequate transmission and distribution networks, and a lack of power generation capacity contribute to frequent power outages and the reliance on expensive and polluting diesel generators.
Nigeria’s energy crisis is characterized by several challenges. Outdated power sector infrastructure limits ecient electricity distribution and results in energy losses. The scarcity of power generation capacity leads to an imbalance between demand and supply, aecting businesses, industries, and overall quality of life.
Energy poverty further exacerbates social and economic inequalities, impeding access to education, healthcare, and economic opportunities. Additionally, Nigeria’s heavy dependence on fossil fuels contributes to environmental issues, such as air pollution and gas aring.
At EeWho, we are committed to addressing energy challenges in Nigeria and beyond through a holistic
approach. We advocate for the adoption of clean and renewable energy sources, such as solar, wind, and hydroelectric power, to create a sustainable and decentralized energy system that reduces reliance on fossil fuels.
We empower individuals and communities through training and education on renewable energy.
We empower individuals and communities through training and education on renewable energy technologies, energy eciency, and entrepreneurship, enabling them to actively participate in the energy transition and create sustainable livelihoods. Through policy advocacy and partnerships with stakeholders, we strive to create favorable policies and regulatory frameworks that promote clean energy development.
Community empowerment lies at the core of our approach. By collaborating with community leaders, women’s groups, and youth organizations, we foster community-led energy projects that address specic needs and aspirations. Our aim is to ensure that communities take ownership of their energy solutions, fostering pride and sustainability.
