Established in 2008, Elephant Energy’s mission is to improve the quality of life in developing communities by pioneering ventures that provide access to appropriate sustainable energy technologies.
Namibia is the second most sparsely populated country in the world. It’s low population density combined with high import tariffs makes it an extremely challenging country in which to do business. It is a country often forgotten about by traditional non-profits and social enterprises. Yet more than 1 million people lack access to electricity in Namibia and 60% of the country’s electricity comes from imported fossil fuels.
Elephant Energy works in 8 Regions across Namibia, Khomas, Kavango, Ohangwena, Omusati, Oshikoto, Otjozondjupa, Oshana, Zambezi, delivering products to the most rural areas.
