Introduction

Rural people in Africa lack the resources necessary to make proactive preparations for climate change, while the rest of the globe is preparing for a future powered by renewable energy. Our project activities and services range significantly, but we are developing a solar system that is portable, simple to install, and capable of powering an entire township's company or residence in collaboration with leading researchers and entrepreneurs.

Report

By providing our local partners with access to renewable energy, we are enabling children to learn at any time, have electricity for computers, sewing machines, and other tools for vocational training, communicate in an emergency, and pump water into their houses to reduce time spent collecting. Renewable energy is a crucial component of future growth and gives institutions the chance to become self-sufficient. Even though we have now raised $413, there is still a long way to go until we reach our target.

Thank you for your support.

Introduction 

Whilst the rest of the world is preparing for a time driven by renewable energy, Rural communities across Africa lack the means to be able to take proactive steps to prepare for climate change. Our project activities and services vary greatly but working with leading scientists and entrepreneurs we are working on a solar system that is light, easy to install and will power a whole business or home in a township..

Report 

By giving our local partners access to renewable energy we are opening doors for children to learn no matter the hour; have electricity to power computers, sewing machines and other material for vocational training; communicate in case of need and pump water into their homes to save time collecting. Renewable energy is a core building block for further development and provides institutions with the opportunity to be self-sustainable. We have managed to raise $337 so far but still have a long way to go to reach our goal.

Report 

Renewable energy is a fundamental component for sustainable cities as well as self-sufficient projects. We want to provide new and innovative ways for communities to access clean energy for their rural projects across Africa, which suffer from either no power access or extensive load shedding. It costs $100 to provide a solar power system the size of an A3 sheet of paper which provides enough power to support one household.

Introduction 

Donations to this project will help our research and development of new initiatives we are involved with and once ready help us to trial and launch across townships. We aim to help decrease the costs of these systems so they become accessible by communities that struggle financially. We are very close to an exciting solution and now need to fundraise to launch..
