Overview
Today, most people in rural areas have access to some form of expensive and polluting energy products and services like kerosene lanterns and diesel gensets. A smaller number have access to expensive solar home systems, providing limited DC power for lighting and cell phone charging over a few hours each day. This leaves a major gap. Households cannot afford to buy large enough Solar Home System or Diesel Genset that could power off-the-shelf high quality appliances, such as refrigerators, freezers or water purification units. Meanwhile local enterprises - shops, rice mills, welders - have no access to reliable three-phase AC that enables major improvements in productivity and cost-efficiency.
