Husk Power
Overview
Founded in 2008 and based in Fort Collins, Colorado, this clean energy company focuses on providing renewable power solutions to off-grid and weak-grid rural areas across East Africa, West Africa, and South Asia. It specializes in the design, construction, ownership, and operation of mini-grids and micro-grids, delivering electricity through a pay-for-use service model.
The company initially pioneered biomass gasification using rice husks, a local agricultural byproduct, to generate electricity. With advancements in solar technology, it has shifted to solar-plus-storage mini-grids—often integrated with biomass—to address a diverse range of community energy requirements. Its mini-power plants supply clean electricity to households, businesses, and community facilities, fostering local economies and improving quality of life. With a mission to build 5,000 mini-grids and connect at least 1 million customers by 2030, the organization is committed to advancing sustainable development in its focus regions.
