Economic growth and the reduction of poverty are difficult or impossible without the enabling power of electricity in all sectors of village life.   Conventional sources of electricity as delivered through the national grid are prohibitively expensive and will not reach most rural areas for years or decades.  Solar generated electricity through distribution of solar powered lamps is a cost effective, reliable alternative that is available now.   For decades,access to news,information,entertainment and clean in-house lighting has been only for the urban and few rural rich who can access grid power.These has since locked out rural households who are forced to rely only on portable radio for news and information and kerosine lanterns and candles for lighting.Shockingly, only 31% of Kenyan have access to Tv leaving a whopping 69% out in the dark,despite the current influx of  educative digital content available. By providing a 19" LED solar powered Tv system that provides 4 benefits inclusively ,100% powered by the Sun,we focus on opening 69% to the World .In Kenya,over 75% of the population have no access to power,only 39% of the population have access to news,information,entertainment via Tv most of whom are based in urban areas due to being able to access grid power .With our solar powered Tv system ,the demand stands at approximately 3M rural customers in Kenya and over 15M across East Africa.  We are the first company in Kenya to offer a high quality solar powered TV system targeting rural off-grid regions of the country. We are hence unlocking the burden of lack of power,solar lighting,entertament and access to news,information and educations most rural households.
