Our solutions
We have worked as pioneers at the forefront of the solar revolution in Africa for over a decade. From basic solar lighting kits to mini-grids powering villages, we deliver the benefits of solar energy to meet customers where they are. We help them climb the energy ladder through fair pricing plans paid in installments via mobile money.
Enabling sustainable & reliable clean energy
Off-grid families use kerosene oil lamps and candles for basic energy needs. As well as being expensive over the long term, this carbon-based fuel damages health and causes fatal fires.
Households on the grid depend on expensive diesel generators to back up unstable service. Those who can access low-quality solar products suffer from unreliability due to lack of after-sales care. These challenges drive our commitment to offering a sustainable, reliable and clean alternative.
Benefits of solar energy
More than 9 million people have benefited from increased health and prosperity thanks to our solar energy solutions.
With MySol, we offer the widest range of PAYGo solar home systems throughout Africa and our certified and quality assured kits have been proven in the field since 2011. They are designed in the United States and Germany to be durable, and our warranties ensure the Best Solar Best Life.
