Great Lakes Energy is a Solar EPC company founded by Sam Dargan in 2005. The company is headquartered in Kigali, Rwanda and primarily serves the East African market. The company is specialized in on-grid and off-grid solar energy systems. For the past decade, the company has immersed in understanding and solving the energy challenges of those in East Africa. Today we use that knowledge and experience to design, build, and maintain solar power systems that are more reliable, more sustainable, and more affordable. The company provides non-governmental organizations, hospitals, and schools with optimized photovoltaic systems. The company has specialized in retrofitting existing off-grid PV solar system designs with optimized versions. In the past, the company has also provided jobs for training local Rwandans on how to engineer and install these systems. The company also has provided training to other social entrepreneurs learning to operate in Africa.[1][2]
