The first renewable energy cooperative in Spain

In 2010, Gijsbert Huijink, a resident of rural Girona, Spain, was frustrated by the lack of electricity access. He installed solar panels on his home, discovering how feasible it was to generate his own power. Hoping to install a wind turbine, he looked for a local energy cooperative to join, but found none focused on both renewable production and consumption in all of Spain.

Powering Limasawa after a Super Typhoon

In the small island of Limasawa, Philippines, recovery after Super Typhoon Odette in 2021 was a daunting challenge. The storm tore through the island, destroying homes, and crippling 90% of agriculture, fisheries, and infrastructures. Among the hardest hit was the Limasawa hybrid solar-diesel power plant, leaving many without electricity for months. Far-flung barangays (communities) like San Agustin, faced a prolonged blackout, making daily life even harder. Families resorted to expensive, polluting diesel generators to light their homes.
