EnerGcare

EnerGcare was established to help solve three developmental challenges in South Africa on a sustainable market driven basis:

1. Reduce energy poverty through increasing access to affordable energy solutions at the BoP;
2. Reduce unemployment through creating opportunities to start EnerGcare agencies and to enhance income earned through diversifying sources of income amongst existing enterprises.
3. Reduce the pollution created as a result of the production of energy using fossil fuels through selling energy efficient and renewable energy (EERE) technologies and fuels.

Implemented by PlaNet Finance, Restio Energy and The Business Place Philippi the project has been made possible through the generous support of the Alstom Foundation for the Environment, Citi Foundation and the Energy and Environment Partnership with Southern and East Africa (EEP).
