Building local capacity, driving income growth, and expanding green energy access for 17,000 young women and youth in agriculture across Enugu State.
Africa's agricultural sector employs 70% of the workforce, yet limited access to reliable electricity hampers productivity, innovation, and climate resilience—particularly for young women.
The Enugu State Anchor Greenhouse Cluster Program, part of the broader EWAS initiative, solves this by integrating green energy and modern tech into farming. By empowering young women with productive use energy (PUE) technologies, we are building a resilient, high-yield food system.
With its vibrant agricultural heartland and large rural population, Enugu presents a unique opportunity to scale energy access. We are integrating advanced greenhouse technologies to shift reliance from unpredictable climate conditions to controlled, profitable, and year-round automated farming environments.
Lowering costs for young women through the Productive Use Financing Facility (PUFF) to access clean tech.
Helping youth integrate productive energy technologies directly into their agricultural businesses and value chains.
Strengthening PUE equipment and energy supply enterprises to reliably serve young women in the local agriculture sector.
Optimizing crop yield and water efficiency using solar-powered irrigation and climate control systems.
Reducing post-harvest losses drastically with localized, clean-energy cold storage chain solutions.
Empowering local women by transforming raw agricultural output into higher-value products at source.
We invite farmers, suppliers, and energy partners to be a part of the Enugu Anchor Greenhouse Cluster Program. Let's create secure jobs and power agriculture together.
