## Description

FRES (Foundation Rural Energy Services) is a pioneering brand in the field of solar energy. As a Dutch not-for-profit organization, FRES is on a mission to advance electrification in rural Africa by establishing small-scale commercial electricity companies under local management. With a 20-year track record, FRES has successfully installed and serviced solar energy installations in various African countries such as South Africa, Mali, Burkina Faso, Uganda, and Guiné-Bissau.

FRES offers a range of solar energy solutions including solar home systems (SHS), micro and nano grids, mini grids, multifunctional platforms, solar water pumping systems, and energy-as-a-service packages. With these solutions, FRES can effectively meet the energy needs of individual households, communities, and businesses in off-grid rural areas.

What sets FRES apart is its commitment to local entrepreneurship. By establishing commercial electricity companies under local management, FRES extends its reach from village to village and district to district. This unique approach not only ensures the long-term financial sustainability of these companies but also allows them to combine affordable, premium technology with professional maintenance.

To achieve its vision of universal clean energy access and contribute to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, FRES is actively seeking partners and donors to support and accelerate its work. With a small head office in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, FRES oversees and supports the activities of its local companies in Africa, providing the necessary expertise and investments for their success.

With trained local field staff, FRES ensures that its customers in remote villages receive excellent customer service and reliable access to affordable electricity. The brand's commitment to customer satisfaction is evident in its continual maintenance of solar systems and its use of next-generation batteries for improved performance.

If you're passionate about sustainable development and want to make a positive impact in rural Africa, partnering with FRES is a great opportunity. Together, we can achieve rural electrification that leaves no one behind.
