BLUEENERGY, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit
blueEnergy provides a low-cost, sustainable solution to the energy needs of marginalized communities through the construction, installation, and maintenance of hybrid wind-solar energy systems.
By manufacturing wind turbines and other key components locally, near their point of usage, blueEnergy is able to keep energy costs low, improve equipment serviceability, and create employment where it is desperately needed. blueEnergy is a public sector initiative that bridges the gap between traditional public charity and the private sector by focusing on serving a disadvantaged class while building assets and revenue streams to ensure sustainability. This innovative approach to delivering energy services provides new hope for the nearly 2 billion people globally that are without access to basic electricity service. Such service is widely considered a necessary, although not sufficient, requirement for modern economic and social development. In Nicaragua, blueEnergy''s initial target country, half of the roughly 5 million inhabitants do not have access to electricity; the situation is particularly grim in the Caribbean Coast region of the country where nearly 80% of the inhabitants do not have access to electricity.
