[Proposed Experiment:] Solar Malawi-Channels- Increasing repayment rates - December 2019

Electrifying Malawi through affordable solar home systems PROBLEM
Vision: Transform access to energy in Africa
Without lighting or power, you are unable to do simple things such as read at night or charge a phone. However, this is the reality for ~90% of Malawians who do not have access to electricity - this is one of the lowest rates of electrification in the world.
Even for those who are connected to the grid, power outages are a regular occurrence, making it an unreliable source of power. Philip, a local, sums up the situation: “Electricity in Malawi isn’t reliable. I would struggle to even cook sometimes because I have no light to prepare my meals. I would end up losing motivation and skip dinner that night”.
PE Ventures has assessed the supply, quality and cost of energy sources in Malawi, and is providing clean, safe affordable energy alternative in the form of solar power.
