IMPACT STORIES HIGHLIGHTS
Bringing power to people, one charge at a time
After developing a battery rental service that replaces fossil fuel with solar-generated power, MOPO received TEA support to validate its technology, and enter new markets. MOPO has now passed 28 million battery rentals across sub-Saharan Africa and raised more than £21 million in further investment.
Reducing post-harvest losses for smallholder farmers through accessible cold storage
Solar-powered cold storage supports resilient food systems and limits post-harvest crop losses. With TEA funding, SokoFresh piloted a business model to bring these technologies straight to Kenya’s rural and often off-grid smallholder farmers, reducing spoilage to just 2%.
Powering up the leading lights in Kenya’s renewables market
It was one of those experiences that I will never forget!” says Moses, the General Manager for East Africa at off-grid solar system provider SUNami Solar.
