Clean Energy for All: BLUETTI and UN-Habitat Strengthen Partnership to Expand Access to Clean Energy in Africa

NAIROBI, Kenya, Aug. 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Global clean energy leader BLUETTI has deepened its partnership with the United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN-Habitat) to accelerate access to sustainable clean energy across Africa. Building on the ongoing 'Lighting An African Family' (LAAF) initiative in Kenya, now in its fourth year, the program continues to benefit 500 families and more than 2,000 residents in urban and peri-urban underserved communities, the majority from women-led households.

As part of the partnership, BLUETTI attended the 2025 Devolution Conference (12–15 August), Kenya's premier policy forum, to showcase how clean, affordable energy solutions support housing, urban resilience, and intelligent urban solutions. The conference reinforced the shared commitment of parties, institutions and the Kenyan Government that clean energy is critical to foster a sustainable future for all.

Building on this momentum, the partnership engaged communities in two urban areas: Muhoroni, a rapidly growing peri-urban area in Kisumu County, and EX-Grogon and Mathare, informal settlements in central Nairobi. Through training and technology transfer, BLUETTI donated 500 E60 Solar Lighting and Storage kits, benefiting over 2,000 residents. Over five years, the initiative is expected to reduce carbon emissions by 337.5 tons, while enhancing urban resilience and environmental awareness in the communities.

"Partnership with BLUETTI brings renewable energy to vulnerable families in Sub-Saharan Africa, especially for women led households, showcasing a UN- private sector partnership model," Mr Oumar Sylla, Director of the Regional Office for Africa at UN-Habitat said while meeting the representatives of BLUETTI at the UN offices in Nairobi.

"We are proud to strengthen our joint effort with UN-Habitat, embracing the mission and responsibility of advancing the Sustainable Development Goals," said James Ray, BLUETTI spokesperson.

Following the Kenya launch, BLUETTI and UN-Habitat plan to expand related programs to other African countries, reaffirming their commitment to sustainability and energy equity.

The launch will be followed by an exclusive evening event after the show's first day, offering media and industry guests a first look at the product in action.

Its detachable handheld GPS features a built-in GPS design within a modular system—an approach that is advanced in the current market—allowing golfers to access accurate yardages anywhere on the course without relying on a smartphone, mobile signal, or paid subscription. Meanwhile, MILESEEY's Quad-MagLock Technology ensures stable, reliable mounting throughout the round.

Built to perform across full rounds and varying conditions, GeneSonic Pro reflects MILESEEY GOLF's focus on practical innovation, durability, and refined design—eliminating the traditional trade-offs between GPS devices and golf speakers.
