Mvuti: on-going site visits – 1

August 26th, 2009

Today Jamie and I went to see the results of the two household installations in Mvuti, get feedback and swap the first batteries!

They look great and results are very encouraging!

- The household owners loved the syste, when asked to give feedback about positives and negatives, only positives were mentioned
- The son of the chairman confirmed that there is strong demand and proposed to make a list of the potential future customers
- They are happy to pay the price asked for the service and do realize a saving with regards to kerosene and AA batteries. The light provided is much better than the one they had before.
- We were even asked by people from other villages to come install the system.
A teacher from another village: “But what is your timeline? Can we expect to have this light soon? We are fed up with using kerosene…”

- Emmanuel

Here are Jamie and Deus (IB Energy, our local partner) installing one of our lighting systems:
