Rethinking Last Mile Connectivity: Why Does the Holistic Approach Make Sense?


Universal access to electricity and sustainable development goals will not be achieved if we continue with business as usual. After witnessing and listening to our customers in rural villages, Africa GreenTec decided to rethink and move from a business model of only providing electricity to a holistic solution of power generation and application. This holistic approach makes sense as it has significant results in socio-economic development, financial sustainability and is technically feasible.
