Our Story
“I founded Village Energy with the aim of training the largest number of community-based solar experts to deliver quality products and after-sales service affordably. Our installation teams cater for our customers a step higher in the energy ladder, looking to bring television, refrigeration, computers, and irrigation into use. Our network of professional engineers and technicians cover districts across Uganda to ensure that any individual, urban or rural, that makes the decision to invest in solar technologies should never move a step backwards but keep advancing on the journey to modernize and expand their organisations. As a result, we will increase confidence in, and adoption of, solar technologies that have the potential to stimulate rapid rural development.”
