ENERGY CENTRES

The Energy Centres serve as the technical outreach arm of the Rural Electrification and Renewable Energy Corporation (REREC). Their primary role is to raise awareness and support the adoption of sustainable energy solutions through:

Training & Sensitization on Renewable Energy Technologies.
Practical Demonstrations and display of Renewable Energy Technologies in all the Energy Centres e.g on Solar applications, biogas utilization, improved and clean cooking solutions and agroforestry.

The Energy Centres are a critical resource for driving sustainable development in their regions of coverage by building local capacity, providing free technical knowledge, and promoting clean technologies. This empowers communities, conserves the environment, and reduces energy poverty.

Currently, there are eighteen (18) operational REREC Energy Centres across the country.
