At the 6th International S-Access Conference in Mallorca, a live clean-cooking demonstration brought the energy access challenge into focus. On the conference patio, Richard Sieff from MECS, the Modern Energy Cooking Services programme funded by UK aid, was cooking with an electric pressure cooker powered by an off-grid solar system. Alongside other clean-cooking technologies the…
EV Rickshaw battery systems are central to keeping low-carbon mobility moving in Nepal and India. As EV Rickshaws continue to prove demand for cleaner transport, the real question is what keeps them running day after day, and what needs to be in place for systems like this to scale reliably. In particular, our site visit…

There was no additional budget, no extension to the timeline, and no option to introduce new hardware.They had constraints, a deadline, and no option to drift. One of the…
Project GANESHA is designed for delivery at scale. By embedding GEDSI into engagement, training, and measurement, we build stronger adoption pathways and clearer evidence of impact. This post outlines how this’s being applied in Nepal and what we’ve learned so far. Table of contents 1) Purpose of this blog Project GANESHA is designing low-carbon, modular…
For nearly three decades, NEVI has been a trailblazer in Nepal’s electric mobility scene. From the first Safa Tempos rolling through Kathmandu’s streets to the ambitious transformation of this factory, here’s how Nepal is putting cleaner, greener transport within reach—step by step, and wall by wall. Table of Contents Introduction: Why This Factory Matters Walk…
At Global Solutions, we are proud to share the story of the Three Sisters of Nepal — pioneers who transformed trekking into a pathway for women’s empowerment. Their model of courage and inclusion aligns closely with our own mission: building scalable systems where technology, equity, and sustainability work hand in hand. Through our GANESHA project,…
