Bright Future Initiative

At Bright North Electric, a portion of our profits goes to an organization called Empower2Transform, which provides solar power to remote communities in need.

Empower2Transform’s vision is "to be a catalyst for community transformation by providing innovative renewable energy solutions." We partner with them financially and provide electrical expertise to help develop systems that are easy to install in remote areas.

We were happy to help with three E2T projects so far, all solar installs in remote communities on the Amazon river. These installs provide lights and power for community medical centres.

July 2018 Solar Install in Nuevo Shetebo, Peru

A simple solar array package can make a world of difference for communities that lack consistent basic power. In partnership with Empower2Transform, we have just completed our first international solar installation in the community of Nuevo Shetebo, Peru. A 600W off-grid system was installed to power a medical center with LED lights and a small fridge for life-saving anti-venom vaccines (venomous snake bites are a prevalent challenge in the region, which contributes to a high mortality rate especially among children). We enjoyed working with this welcoming community and we are excited for their future.
