Sahelia Solar has developed a new way to offer solar energy systems to rural cooperatives at a lower price than current fuel-based alternatives, integrating a pay-as-you-go model and mobile payment and monitoring options. Costs are divided over time and across users, ensuring fair access to energy for rural micro-entrepreneurs. The first beneficiaries of the service will be the members of the FNGN Cooperative and the project will be deployed on FNGN’s existing infrastructure, including its multifunctional platforms and activity centres.
