TanzSolar was Awarded the 2013 National Energy Globe Award for Tanzania! Your support makes this work possible, so THANK YOU!
TanzSolar continues to work with homeowners to provide affordable solar lighting. We are trying out a couple of new products this quarter; the NIWA 300 solar light and a DASOL lighting package (see photos).
The NIWA light is a single, very bright light with an outlet for cell phone charging. It comes with a solar panel that can be roof-mounted or simply put out in the sun on the ground every day for recharging.
The DASOL package is a home lighting system with 3 lights, a solar panel and cell phone charging. This is more expensive than the single-light system but offers the ability to provide light in 3 rooms.
The TanzSolar team will take these lighting products to the village markets to sell them at a subsidized price. These lights are life-changing for the village residents, and they simply cannot afford them without the subsidy afforded by your generous contributions.
We are nearing the end of this project! TanzSolar will continue to focus on our Solar-Schools4Africa project and our upcoming Solar-Healthcare4Africa project. We thank you for your ongoing support and hope that you will help us wrap up this project and continue to support the work that the TanzSolar team is doing, sustainably improving the quality of life for thousands of rural Tanzanians.
