Background
GreenWize Energy Limited is an innovative and fast growing for profit energy social enterprise based in Sub Saharan Africa. It was founded by Kenyan Engineers, Evans Wadongo and Edwin Keverenge in 2014. Both the founders grew up in rural villages in Kenya without access to electricity and relied upon kerosene for lighting and firewood for cooking. GreenWize seeks to introduce innovative green energy products and solutions that beat competitors in the African market on originality, pricing, reliability in performance, ease of use, customization, and excellent support services.
This for-profit venture builds upon the successful non-profit social entrepreneurship venture being implemented by Sustainable Development for All (SDfA), founded by Evans Wadongo. SDfA has over the last several years worked on two pillars: (1) providing lighting to rural very low-income households without access to grid electricity through a technology that is reliable in performance, affordable, user friendly and environmentally safe; (2) enabling user households to start income generating projects by using savings realized from cutting or eliminating on everyday purchase of fossil fuels (kerosene), which would have otherwise been used to power their kerosene lamps. However, the sustainability to date of the SDfA has in part been dependent on grants.
It is for this reason that GreenWize was created and parts of the proceeds generated from the company are donated towards supporting SDfA’s philanthropic objectives.

GreenWize Energy Ltd has a vision to be known for excellence as well as a pioneer in sustainable energy and green solutions in the world.
