Since 2016, IUP has played an important role to help power villages and communities on the island of Espiritu Santo in Vanuatu.
As part of this initiative, IUP supplied Vanuatu Utilities and Infrastructure (VUI) with 5.5kV in-ground mounted poles, contributing to the annual expansions that brought electricity to these areas for the first time. IUP also provided low-cost LED streetlights to VUI, which are attached to the supplied utility poles.
