Harnessing Clean Energy Markets
See howSince 2006, Lifeline has drilled and repaired over 370 water wells that have benefitted over 250,000 individuals in rural Uganda through the ClearWater Initiative. We are enabling clean water access to those in need and empowering communities to drive their own economic growth.
Outputs:
- 370 water wells drilled and repaired, benefitting more than 250,000 individuals
- 30,000 community members in rural Uganda covered by EverFlow water point maintenance and repair service
- 100,000+ rural households and individuals trained to employ improved hygiene and sanitation practices
Community impacts:
- 99.6% functionality at water points covered by EverFlow -> this equates to over 363 days of reliable water access per year
- Over 9 million hours saved in time spent collecting water
With 90% of sub-Saharan African cooking over an open fire, the consequences on health, livelihood and to the environment are devastating. Lifeline’s innovative fuel-efficient cookstove program is tackling the problem of rising wood and charcoal costs while decreasing the amount of biomass used for cooking.
Outputs:
- 400,000+ efficient cookstoves sold/distributed across East Africa and the Caribbean
- One of the largest stove manufacturing centers in Uganda: producing 8,000 stoves per month and employing 150+ community members
- 42% average fuel savings for household stoves, 60% average fuel savings for institutional stoves
Community impacts:
- Over 2 million lives impacted
- Over 1 million tons of CO2 offset through the use of fuel-saving stoves
- 10% increase in disposable income for 96,000 urban and peri-urban families in Uganda
- 20% increase in disposable income for 50,000 urban and peri-urban families in Haiti
