Tackling the Fuel Crisis with Wind Power & Innovation

Session 6 of the Clean Energy Fellowship Laos couldn’t have come at a more critical time. As we navigate the current global fuel crisis, our focus turned to the immense potential of Wind Power.

During this session, our Fellows dived deep into how wind energy works, the landscape of wind energy projects currently moving forward in Laos, and sustainable solutions to reduce our dependency on fossil fuels.

To put theory into practice, we took a "green" field trip to the National Control Center (NCC) at EDL. In the spirit of our mission, we traveled via EV Tuktuks—proving that clean transport is a viable answer to fuel shortages.

A huge thank you to Electricite du Laos (EDL) for hosting us and providing an in-depth look at how they manage and operate the national grid. One of our most exciting sessions yet!
