  • Acerca de

    Nuru (Swahili for “light”) is a company dedicated to enhancing connectivity in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Nuru deployed Congo’s first solar-based mini-grid in 2017 and has a 1.3MW solar hybrid site in Goma, the largest off-grid mini-grid in sub-Saharan Africa. It also has another solar hybrid site in Beni and two in the oriental province (Tadu & Faradje). Three more are planned for construction in the coming months: a 2MW site in Kindu, a 3.7MW site in Goma (Bulengo), and an 8MW site in Bunia.

    Nuru was first established under the name Kivu Green Energy in August 2015. We changed our name in September 2019 to reflect our expansion beyond the Kivu regions into other parts of DRC.
