Empowering Communities Through Safe, Sustainable Water Solutions
For families, especially women and children, the daily search for water takes away precious time and energy. By supporting safe, reliable water access, you help communities reclaim time for education, work, and building brighter futures.
Why This Project Matters
01
Empowering Communities through Sustainable Water
For families, especially women and children, the daily search for water takes away precious time and energy. Piped water access frees up hours each day for education, work, and caregiving, empowering communities and reducing poverty cycles
02
Protecting Health and Saving Lives
Unsafe surface water exposes families to cholera, typhoid, and dysentery. Clean piped water reduces disease and cuts smoke exposure from boiling water with firewood, preventing respiratory illnesses
03
Restoring Land and Supporting Farmers
Reliable water strengthens Solaxy’s Kenya AgroCarbon Initiative, boosting tree seedling survival, supporting agroforestry, and restoring degraded landscapes. It also enhances food security and protects biodiversity
Project Overview
Solaxy Group, in partnership with the government of Kenya and women’s groups, is implementing the Mbeere South Last Mile Water Connectivity Project in Embu County, Kenya. Building on government-funded Phase I infrastructure at Kamburu Dam, this initiative will deliver safe, solar-powered piped water directly to 5,000 households — reaching more than 40,000 people across Mavuria and Mbeti South ward
Phase I
(Government of Kenya): 10,000 m³/day treatment plant, solar pumping station, and 12.2 km of trunk pipeline.
Phase II (Solaxy)
139 km of downstream distribution network, metered household connections, and public access points.
Community Reach:
Schools, health centers, and households in rural zones that currently rely on unsafe sources.
Carbon Finance
Project funded through forward sales of carbon credits under Gold Standard for the Global Goals (GS4GG).
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
The project is directly aligned with the United Nations 2030 Agenda, advancing:
Good Health and Well-Being
reducing waterborne disease
Gender Equality
reducing unpaid domestic labor and empowering women in governance
Clean Water and Sanitation
piped safe water to households and institutions
Climate Action
verified emission reductions through carbon finance
Community-Led, Climate-Financed
Harnessing carbon finance and local leadership to deliver lasting water access.
Public–Private Partnership:
Kenya government-funded Phase I built core infrastructure, while Solaxy is completing Phase II through carbon credit financing.
Equitable Impact:
Community participation, women’s leadership, and reinvestment of carbon revenues ensure sustainable and inclusive benefits.
