[top] [end]Mission

Promoting sustainable energy supply with appropriate technologies for integrated rural development in Liberia.

[top] [end]Activities

CSET serves as a resource center for the dissemination of information on energy technologies, with emphasis on renewable energy as alternative energy sources. The center is aimed at accelerating the use of renewable energy that can be used in areas such as schools, health clinics, agriculture, communication and information technologies and micro-enterprises in rural areas. CSET believes that energy is a major input for survival and socio-economic activities. Therefore, access to appropriate and sustainable energy services is critical for reducing poverty and enabling sustainable development rural areas.

[top] [end]Strategies

CSET uses innovative solutions to the development of sustainable programs that use clean, efficient, appropriate and renewable energy technologies to meet the development needs of rural areas. This involves organizing the beneficiaries, the primary stakeholders, and the community with whom and for whom we plan to work. We organize people from within by providing them information, technology, expertise, and mobilizing external resources for use to regenerate their own resources more efficiently, add value and enhance sustainable development with high socio-economic impact at the local community and grassroots levels.
