The Powering Healthcare Program will deliver distributed clean energy solutions to healthcare facilities at scale through two core initiatives. Funded by a $1.5 million project grant award from the US Agency for International Development South Africa, Sustainable Energy For All Verein FÜR Nachhaltige Energie will build an investment case for electrifying healthcare facilities to ensure access to reliable power. They will also create standardized processes and models to deliver these solutions sustainably.

This work directly supports the goals of the USAID Foreign Assistance for Programs Overseas program (CFDA #98.001) by advancing long-term economic growth and development objectives through improving global health sector infrastructure and access. The 27-month period of performance for this award began March 8, 2021 and will contribute to building healthcare system resiliency through establishing renewable energy alternatives.
