SolarAid project benefits 9 million in Africa, 1.5 million lights sold
From www.rtcc.org - February 10, 2015 Some 1.5 million solar lamps have been sold across East Africa in a charity initiative to replace smoky, expensive, polluting kerosene. Many of the 600 million people who are still without electricity in Africa rely on home-made kerosene lamps for lighting − putting themselves in danger from fire, toxic black smoke, and eye damage. But cheaper solar technology is being offered that can provide long-lasting light and additional power to charge telephones and other electric devices, without the need for an electricity grid connection. |
