Productive-use pilots

Moved beyond lighting to test how power could support small enterprises and agriculture.

2017–2019

Scaling infrastructure

Expanded the mini-grid fleet and formalised MSEPL as the operating company.

Enterprise-led growth

Structured enterprise development, market linkages and access to finance became core to the model.

TODAY

Proven economic model

A replicable model of rural energy plus economic development, ready to scale with partners.

HOW THE MODEL WORKS

Five connected steps, from first
visit to lasting enterprise.

01

Understand the community

Spend time with village leaders, women’s groups and existing enterprises to map real economic needs before any hardware arrives.

02

Design and install the mini-grid

Right-size a solar mini-grid to the community’s productive and residential load, built for two decades of service.

03

Operate and maintain reliable energy

MSEPL, our operating company, runs the grid with local technicians, metering and a service-level commitment.

04

Develop local enterprises

Support new and existing entrepreneurs with productive-use equipment, training, and enterprise coaching.

05

Connect businesses to finance and markets

Link entrepreneurs to working capital, market buyers and value chains beyond the village boundary.
