TODAY, 1.4 BILLION PEOPLE IN THE WORLD DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO ENERGY

In sub-Saharan Africa, only 8% of the population in rural areas has access to mains electricity but mini-grids – localized generation, transmission and distribution of power – could change all that. These populations suffer from poor health, social and economic development conditions whilst paying a large part of their revenue for a harmful and polluting energy. As the international expert in solar energy, SOLAR EPC provides most reliable, affordable and clean energy for your community.

In countries where the energy infrastructure is under-developed and few towns are adequately electrified, extending the grid is often not financially viable, and certainly not likely to happen in the short to medium term. As the cost of solar energy in rural Africa, and other countries in Asia has fallen dramatically in recent years, setting up a mini-grid powered by renewable energy has become the cheapest way to provide electricity.
