Energy is a Human Right
The Solar Electric Light Fund (SELF) is a cutting-edge, independent not-for-profit organization that designs and implements sustainable energy solutions for enhancements in health, education, agriculture and economic growth in the developing world.
SELF works to deliver solar power and wireless communications to rural villages in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. SELF leads in facilitating a new generation of "whole village" solar electrification projects to power water pumping and purification, drip irrigation, health clinics (including vaccine refrigeration), schools, household and community lighting, and income-generating micro-enterprises that can be scaled up through the private sector or through public/private partnerships.
Working with government, industry and non-governmental organization partners, SELF has facilitated solar electricity projects in more than 15 countries, including Bhutan, Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Navajo Nation, Nepal, Nigeria, Sri Lanka, Rwanda, Solomon Islands, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda and Vietnam.
