De-Risking Pay-As-You-Go Solar Home Systems in Uganda Refugee Settlement Grants Program

The development of off-grid power systems for the population in crisis areas is usually done via generators, which is expensive to operate and generates many dependencies, for example on fossil fuels or technicians with specialist knowledge. Although solar battery systems offer more independence, they are either less powerful or more complex in design, less flexible and difficult to expand. Power-Blox addresses these disadvantages of solar battery systems and offers an innovative alternative.
