The EcoPatuca Solution.

Patuca, Honduras, has significant economic potential but faces challenges such as poor electricity service, environmental degradation, and social and economic stagnation. With a low Human Development Index and a young population under 30, Patuca presents immense opportunities for sustainable development. The EcoPatuca Solution aims to address these issues by leveraging Patuca’s rich natural resources encompassed in a geographical area of 635km2 with our strong local relationships for sustainable growth.

Our Integrated Energy Project: EcoPatuca

EcoPatuca is a comprehensive project aimed at creating a renewable energy-powered smart microgrid in Patuca, Nigeria. The project involves three stages: existing hydropower, solar expansion, and sustainable community development. The first stage involves a 1 MW hydroelectric power plant (buildt and operating), while the second stage involves a 2 MW solar plant and smart microgrid system. The third stage uses electricity revenues from the 2MW solar farm to fund environmental education, watershed restoration, and carbon sequestration projects. The project aims to improve electricity quality, reduce operating costs, and foster economic growth in Patuca.

Project Impact:

Environmental, Social and Economic Transformation

The EcoPatuca project aims to transform Patuca’s environment, social, and economic aspects through environmental stewardship, improved quality of life, economic empowerment, and a replicable model for similar rural communities facing similar challenges in Latin America and other parts of the world. It provides a clean energy alternative, promotes carbon sequestration, and enhances daily life.
