Solar Village

Our Solar Village

In order to be able to make a long-term contribution towards alleviating poverty, the Solar Energy Foundation our funding partner for this initiative has decided not to provide isolated and scattered schools, health stations or huts or rural houses with solar energy. Instead, a policy of concentrated and comprehensive support to supply entire villages is pursued.

In this arrangement, individual households as well as all public buildings (schools, health centers and churches) in a chosen solar village are provided with solar power. Furthermore, solar water pumps, water disinfection systems and street lamps are also installed.

The Key success factors
  • a) Local technicians who are on-site and responsible for the maintenance and servicing.
  • b) A monthly flat rate the beneficiaries have to pay which is administered & collected by the local branch of Anuel Energy.
Thus we focus implementation of the solar village on the following priority areas: Light for Life: Households get a basic electricity supply for light and mobile charging. Light for Education: Better conditions for studying as well as teaching due to light in classrooms as well as in the households. Light for Health: A better health supply (efficient emergency care and the supervision of births around the clock, better storage of vaccinations and medicine) as well as better living conditions (reduction of lung and prenatal diseases) as a result of the use of solar light and cooling.
