Solar power is a new technology to most in rural Peru. Providing quality products made locally and teaching people how to properly use them will help overcome the natural apprehension of something new.
We are planning a promotional campaign to show the products, how they are used, and how they can save families money on fuel and go into business selling the devices or raising chickens.
Designing in parts that are available in Peru at low cost.
