de-risking by doing:
Innovation to solve energy poverty

EarthSpark helps communities unlock opportunities.

​

EarthSpark builds energy-related business models that expand opportunity for people living in hard-to-reach places. We focus first 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. Our current focus is expanding our solar-powered community microgrids from 2 to 24 grids in Haiti to bring reliable, high-quality electricity to over 80,000 people in the next 4 years.

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 climate justice and Sustainable Energy for All.

Multi-Solving with Electric Cooking and Microgrids makes Sense

Electric cooking can improve lives, reduce emissions, and boost solar-powered microgrids.

EarthSpark research shows that multi-solving for clean cooking and electricity access can deliver higher quality services with better climate benefits than addressing each issue alone. That's a big deal! READ MORE.

Is 100% Renewable Energy Possible? It's Happening!

The EarthSpark team has already committed to shifting to 100% renewable energy for our electricity systems in Haiti.

It turns out that relying on even a small amount of fossil fuels where we work is extremely expensive and difficult to manage. For us, the shift to 100% is already here.

"Solar Pioneers" Features EarthSpark

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.

Powering through CRISES

Picture
EarthSpark is delivering some of the most reliable grid power in all of Haiti now and throughout the national fuel crisis. It's been a very challenging time and far from ideal, but we can say that the lack of diesel pushed us to our 100% solar power plan ahead of schedule! Read more.
