PV stands for photovoltaics. PV devices generate electricity from sunlight.

Solar power provides a sustainable clean energy alternative to families that are unable to affordably connect to the electrical grid.

For families in rural locations, having solar power provides alternatives to using gasoline or diesel generators, and lighting sources such as propane, candles, and batteries for flashlights. By using a PV system, families can potentially save money on fuel for lighting and electricity, as well as saving time having to drive to get fuel.

With proper usage and maintenance, PV modules can last up to 20 years, and batteries can last up to 10 years.

Through customer engagement, we have learned that systems in the 2 kW capacity range meet most family’s basic electricity needs.
