Mission

MISSION TO ELECTRIFY AND SUPPORT COMMUNITIES IN GLOBAL VILLAGES WHO CURRENTLY DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO ELECTRICITY.

990-EZ for the year ended December 31, 2025

Program accomplishments

  • IN LATE JANUARY 2025, 16 LINEWORKERS AND SIX SUPPORT STAFF MEMBERS ASSISTED THE COOPEFFA ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE WITH THE PURPOSE OF BUILDING ELECTRIC INFRASTRUCTURE TO FOUR ADDITIONAL COMMUNITIES. THIS PROJECT WAS THE LARGEST BUILD TO DATE WITH 197 HOMES CONNECTED. THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, PROJECT INDIANA WORKED WITH COOPERA ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE TO IDENTIFY A REPAIR SOLUTION FOR ITS SOLE GENERATION SOURCE, A HYDRO ELECTRIC GENERATOR. THE GENERATOR HAD BEEN INOPERABLE FOR APPROXIMATELY TWO YEARS. IN AUGUST, FOUR PROJECT INDIANA VOLUNTEER LINEWORKERS ASSISTED THE COOPERATIVE WITH INSPECTION AND REPAIRS TO THE DISTRIBUTION INFRASTRUCTURE THAT HAD BEEN UNENERGIZED SINCE THE GENERATOR STOPPED WORKING. REPAIRS TO THE GENERATOR WERE COMPLETE IN DECEMBER AND THE SEVEN VILLAGES SERVED BY THE COOPERATIVE WERE RE-ENERGIZED IN TIME FOR CHRISTMAS. ALSO THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, PROJECT INDIANA VOLUNTEERS WORKED WITH GUATEMALAN ENERGY ADMINISTRATION OFFICIALS TO ESTABLISH MECHANISMS FOR ELECTRIC COOPERATIVES TO BE RECOGNIZED BY THE GOVERNMENT AS LEGITIMATE ELECTRIC UTILITIES. IN DOING SO, THE ELECTRIC COOPERATIVES COULD HAVE ACCESS TO THE NATIONAL POWER GRID, THUS SOLVING POWER ACCESS CHALLENGES. THIS WORK WILL CONTINUE IN 2026.
