WHO WE ARE
The GivePower Foundation (“GivePower”) is a growing team of passionate problem-solvers creating innovative ways in which to use and develop clean energy systems around the world, for developing regions that need it most. GivePower’s primary programs include solar electrification for medical, educational and economic needs in developing regions; deploying scalable solar-powered desalination solutions for clean water access in remote communities, promoting integral female empowerment, and sponsoring “voluntourism” treks for donors and partners that want to experience the impact firsthand.

At GivePower, every Solar Impact Project (SIP) is designed and built for long-term, reliable performance. We select only high-quality, durable components and maintain rigorous quality control throughout installation. The large majority of our systems are equipped with advanced remote-monitoring technology, giving our global team real-time visibility into performance by integrating internet connectivity wherever available.

As our portfolio has grown,



we have identified a significant challenge: nearly 40% of our monitored projects have lost remote connectivity. While these outages are believed to be largely attributable to internet service disruptions—such as lapsed payments—rather than hardware or system failures, we need to confirm root causes and develop strategies to restore and maintain connectivity across our global portfolio.

YOUR ROLE
As the Solar Impact Projects Research Intern, you will lead a short-term research effort to systematically investigate the connectivity status of offline solar installations, diagnose the underlying causes of outages, and help GivePower build a clearer picture of installation health and longevity. This is a hands-on role with the opportunity to work on socially impactful and mission-critical projects deployed around the globe.
This is an internship for 8 weeks (40 hours per week but this can be flexible)
