How We Work​

At LUTW, we are driven, and deeply committed to our mission, because energy changes everything.

Our focus is on providing access to clean, renewable energy, reliable internet, and essential infrastructure such as street lighting. These solutions open up new opportunities for education, economic development, and safety. By improving living conditions and reducing health risks associated with indoor cooking, we help create more resilient and prosperous communities for the future.

From bringing sustainable energy to off-grid communities to providing hands-on training for future clean energy leaders, our programs are diverse but driven by the same mission: to empower underserved communities with reliable, renewable energy solutions. We believe that everyone deserves access to clean, safe, and sustainable power.

Through our initiatives, we install solar energy systems that enhance safety, create new economic opportunities, and provide access to technology. We also offer hands-on solar training for Canadian students, ensuring the next generation of clean energy professionals gains real-world experience while making a meaningful impact.

Where We Work

We bring sustainable energy solutions to the most remote and underserved communities in the Andes of Peru, ensuring no one is left in the dark. Through collaboration with local and international partners, and hands-on training programs, we empower communities with renewable energy and technology. As a growing solar energy charity, we aim to expand our impact globally, continuing the international work we began years ago in Africa.
