Rwanda: NGO promotes wind energy

In 1994 war and genocide in Rwanda left almost one million people displaced. Resettlement villages were constructed in the rural areas to shelter refugees and to provide the basic necessities. Rwindalectric Inc is a new non-profit organisation that has been established to assist in addressing Rwanda's energy deficit, in particular through the provision of wind energy. The organisation believes this to be the best option for the country, being an economically sound renewable resource which produces no environmentally harmful waste or emission and working well in
conjunction with existing hydropower.
