Over 1 billion people in the world lack access to electricity, including 600 million in sub-Saharan Africa. In Kenya alone, electrification stands at a mere 56% and falls as low 2.4% in the rural counties Project Jua works in. If people there do have access to energy, it’s often using unreliable, expensive and polluting diesel generators. So our aim is to provide them with clean, affordable and dependable solar power that’ll have the greatest impact on their lives.
