Power, Built Locally

The grid, one village at a time

Where the national grid stops, Husk builds one minigrid at a time.

Energy access is not one national grid. It is thousands of small ones, built where the power is used.

When the national grid skips your town, the power arrives one village at a time. By January 2025 Husk Power had built more than 400 solar minigrids across rural Africa and South Asia, doubling its fleet in twelve months to reach 1.5 million people and 30,000 small businesses. Building the grid where it is used, not where it was planned, is how the next billion get power.
