Mission: Eradicate Energy Poverty

EarthSpark is a non-profit working as an incubator for clean energy enterprises that can deliver sustainable energy services. 

EarthSpark's mission: eradicate energy poverty. Our method: do the research and development on business models that can spin off and scale to address specific aspects of energy poverty with a specific focus on what can work in Haiti. So far, we have spun off Enèji Pwòp, S.A., a Haitian social enterprise, and SparkMeter, Inc., a smart meter technology company. We have also built a first-of-its-kind, town-sized, solar-powered, smart grid in rural Haiti.

Where there is no incumbent infrastructure, there is an opportunity to build energy systems that use today's technologies, business models, and community participation to deliver clean, affordable, reliable electricity. This is our way of working towards Sustainable Energy for All.

The Economist features EarthSpark in "Solar Frontiers"

The Economist Films featured EarthSpark in their mini-doc on solar + innovation. Watch to see a family getting electricity for the first time from the EarthSpark grid and meet some of the men and women working on solar innovation from Haiti to Alabama and beyond.
