STG International (STGI) teams up with OnePower (1PWR) to build solar minigrids and bring reliable, affordable electricity to communities that need it most, from Lesotho to Zambia, Benin, and beyond. The engine behind that work is people. Your donation to STGI funds education and training for staff across all of OnePower's country offices, giving them the skills to design, build, and maintain the innovative technologies their communities depend on.
Across Africa, millions live without reliable electricity. STGI and 1PWR are changing that by building solar minigrids in underserved communities. This work depends on skilled local people, and that expertise needs to keep growing alongside new innovation and ambitious, pioneering projects. Specialized training in clean energy technologies is often unavailable or unaffordable in the countries where we work, leaving talented employees without access to the skills that move the mission forward.
Donations to STGI fund education and training for 1PWR staff across every country office. Through fellowships and targeted courses, employees gain skills in renewable energy, electric vehicle technology, first aid and fire safety, data analytics, hardware development, and much more. By investing directly in local talent, we build lasting in-house expertise instead of relying on outside help, strengthening teams wherever the mission grows.
Every trained employee multiplies our impact for years. Skilled local teams build and maintain more minigrids, reach more communities, and pioneer new technologies that serve their own countries. As 1PWR expands into new regions, this growing base of expertise makes the mission sustainable and self-sufficient. The result is not just more clean energy, but empowered people and stronger local economies, with knowledge that stays and compounds in the communities that need it most.
