Solar Lanterns for Energy Access in East & West Africa 2024
⭔ 40.2K haCommunitySolar Lanterns
In 2024, The Solar Foundation funded and distributed 350 solar lanterns to communities in Uganda and Nigeria. Solar lanterns provide light and charging for phones to those living without electricity. We see the lanterns as the first step to bringing people out of energy poverty. We have received feedback that they have helped children study at night, help keep phones charged and provide light at evening markets.
