Partners I
Growth and Development
At EEAU, we believe that real progress comes from deliberate development aligned with international best practices. That’s why we connect our members to impactful opportunities such as technical trainings, workshops, site visits, regulatory updates, and national conferences. These platforms promote local innovation and sustainability leadership in Uganda.
We are affiliated with the Association of Energy Engineers (AEE) and the Global ESCO Network, linking our community to a global network of over 28,000 energy professionals across 125+ countries. Our certification and training programs are delivered in partnership with global institutions and supported by development partners such as GIZ and the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Development (MEMD).
Our work also recognizes the link between energy efficiency, climate resilience, and sustainable mobility, with active engagement in e-mobility, low-carbon development, and clean energy access initiatives across Uganda.
Partners II
Community
EEAU is not just a platform—it is a growing community of individuals and institutions committed to energy efficiency and sustainability. Through our divisions and interest groups, members engage in peer learning, mentorship, and project collaboration. Our active groups include the ESCO Division, CWEEL Uganda (Council on Women in Energy & Environmental Leadership), and Student Chapters at MUK, MUBS, and KYU. These communities provide space for discussion, knowledge exchange, and innovation that drives Uganda’s energy transformation.
