Country Context

The Palestinian territories experience economic constraints exacerbated by movement restrictions and resource limitations, particularly affecting youth employment and business development opportunities.

Our Impact

Youth employment initiatives have prepared 1,500 young adults for careers in solar technology, with 85% of graduates finding employment in the renewable energy sector. The program combines technical training with practical experience through community solar installation projects that address local energy needs.

Small businesses have benefited from solar-powered solutions that reduce energy costs by 60% and increase profitability. Agricultural enterprises particularly thrive with solar-powered irrigation and processing equipment, increasing production efficiency by 40% while reducing operational costs.

Community infrastructure development includes 20 solar micro-grids providing reliable electricity to 40,000 people. These installations power homes, businesses, and essential services while creating local employment opportunities, demonstrating how energy access can drive broader economic development.
