Programs in Tanzania & Zanzibar
Building resilient health and community systems through clean energy
Why Tanzania & Zanzibar
Tanzania and Zanzibar face significant energy insecurity that directly impacts healthcare delivery across rural and peri-urban communities.
These regions provide a strong foundation for pilot programs due to established institutional presence, proven delivery capacity, and supportive regulatory environments.
Initial deployments in Tanzania and Zanzibar demonstrate technical viability and operational effectiveness, creating a proven model for regional scale.
Strong institutional capacity enables effective program delivery
Current Program Focus
AHPI programs in Tanzania and Zanzibar deliver coordinated, system-level clean energy solutions across healthcare and community institutions.
Healthcare Facilities
Powering primary healthcare clinics with reliable solar energy systems, ensuring continuous operation of critical medical equipment and services.
Schools & Education
Supporting schools and community institutions with clean energy access, enabling extended learning hours and improved educational outcomes.
Integrated Systems
Integrating clean cooking and water systems alongside energy infrastructure, addressing multiple community needs through coordinated delivery.
System-Level Approach
Programs emphasize coordinated delivery across multiple sectors, ensuring that energy infrastructure supports comprehensive community development and healthcare strengthening.
Pilot Clinics & Projects
Initial deployments demonstrate technical and operational viability, providing real-world data to refine systems and validate delivery models.
Pilot Purpose: These initial deployments test system performance under real-world conditions, validate technical specifications, and refine operational procedures before regional expansion.
