NewEnergy was founded in 1994 at a time when the vast majority of communities in the region needed development services especially in water and sanitation delivery. It became a WaterAid partner soon after its creation and has remained a partner to date.
It operates in four districts of the region, namely: West Mamprusi, Gushiegu Karaga, tamale Municipality, and Tolon Kumbungu.
NewEnergy’s main activities are the provision of water and sanitation facilities, hygiene promotion, advocacy, micro-credit, enterprise development training, environmental conservation, and renewable energy services.
