Mission

Green Empowerment promotes community-based renewable energy, delivery of potable water, and related watershed restoration internationally to generate social and environmental progress.

Programs

Green Empowerment brings electricity and water to communities in the less developed world through renewable energy systems (micro hydro, biomass, and solar power) to stimulate positive social and economic advances. We emphasize local leadership, community participation, and long-term economic and environmental sustainability. Our projects produce electricity for residential and community use to promote local economic development and micro-enterprises and deliver potable water.
