REREC Projects

REREC SUCCESS STORIES

Electrification of Public Facilities

Electrification of public facilities and households located within a radius of 600 meters from an existing transformer were prioritized during this period. In addition, new transformer installation on existing grid networks for households’ electricity connection were undertaken.

Promotion and Development of Other Renewable Energy Technologies

REREC completed six pilot projects in wind, biogas, solar and mini hydros shown on the table below. The two mini-hydros are community-based projects where REREC provided financial and technical support to enhance their operations.
