Waste2Light Ltd is a renewable energy social enterprise in Nigeria that transforms plastic waste and agro-residue into clean, affordable power solutions for off-grid communities. They design wind, hydro, and hybrid microgrid systems using recycled materials and 3D-printed components. Through their initiative, they also empower youth via green entrepreneurship and STEM training programs—providing both energy access and skills for sustainable livelihoods.
I’m honored to have mentored Emmanuel Abah, Waste2Light’s Founder & CEO, in strengthening their mission-driven strategy, operational execution, and public engagement.

When we started working together, Waste2Light had a compelling green energy model—but faced several interconnected hurdles: many communities lacked reliable energy sources; the concept of harnessing plastic waste for renewable systems was groundbreaking but unfamiliar; and their storytelling and funding readiness needed sharpening.
