Tri Mumpuni & Mika Turpeinen
Bringing Energy to the Poor
– How to set up inclusive energy systems
in developing countries
Tri Mumpuni is
a social entrepreneur in Indonesia. With her
organization, People Centered Economic &
Business Institute (IBEKA), she enables electric
power supply through micro hydropower for rural
areas. Her concept allows the communities to
have equity in funding the system
and to receive income from the generated revenue.
The United Nations Economic Commission for Asia
and the Pacific (UNESCAP) adopted the concept
as a Public Private Partnership model in the
Asia Pacific region.
Tri Mumpuni was elected as a Ashoka Fellow in
2006 and listed as one of the 100 most powerful
women in Asia in 2007.
