Our Background

Its mission is to enhance energy access and improve appliance efficiency through clean energy support and affordable repair services, primarily targeting low-income households.
Founded in Charlotte, North Carolina, DEG collaborates with Sub-Saharan African countries on climate change mitigation projects aimed at reducing carbon emissions and increasing renewable energy generation in line with the Paris Agreement. DEG also emphasizes women's engagement in clean energy awareness and usage. To facilitate the transition to solar energy, DEG is developing a partnership model to improve electricity access in public facilities, known as Governance Health Education Energy Access (GHEEA).Additionally, DEG seeks funding for a pilot of its Distributed Renewable Energy Storage System (DRESS), which aims to provide affordable electricity access for off-grid communities.
