Voices from the Project

Agnès Tshimbombo

The project brings clean solar lighting to households across Madagascar, replacing kerosene and other fossil-fuel lighting. A pay-as-you-go model keeps lamps affordable, while carbon finance lowers sales and after-sales costs so systems reach the families who need them most.

Integrity through real-time digital MRV

Every lamp is connected. A PAYGo system with smart meters and mobile connectivity tracks lighting hours, battery performance and actual CO₂ savings in real time, giving buyers transparent, device-level evidence from installation to impact.

  • Lighting hours
  • Battery performance
  • CO₂ savings per device
