Our approach

1. We promote the spread of solar energy.

It is reliable, affordable and environmentally friendly. And it easily meets
the energy needs of households, schools, health stations or businesses.

2. We promote local solar crafts.

Small and medium-sized enterprises are important factors in the fight
against poverty, environmental destruction and for job creation.

That’s why we always use donor-funded projects to support local solar

companies.

A dual approach that has been proven since 2003.
