Ignite Power and the Netherlands Development Organization (SNV) have signed an agreement which will result in the distribution of 300,000 solar home systems to off-grid areas in Mozambique.
Under the agreement, Ignite will look to accelerate electrification in Mozambique through the installation of its solar home systems. Ignite says it is committed to installing 300,000 of these systems over the next few years.
The partnership with SNV is part of the BRILHO program. BRILHO is a five-year program, 2019 – 2024, that will catalyze Mozambique’s off-grid energy market in order to provide clean and affordable energy solutions to the country’s off-grid population. BRILHO’s overall goal is to improve and increase energy access for people and businesses, leading to money saving, better well-being and livelihood opportunities for the low-income population.
