I came across "Solar Sister" an interesting name that got me fascinated but had a quick relational thought that it was all about solar energy and incomprehensively nothing more. With a curious spirit I went digging deep and it was impressive to learn of a well curated business model aimed at providing women with economic opportunity, training, technology and support to distribute clean energy to underserved communities in Africa . A piece of info from their website reads: "Everyone should have access to clean energy. In sub-Saharan Africa, where more than 600 million people have no access to electricity and over 700 million must rely on harmful fuels, it’s women who bear the huge burden of this energy poverty and who disproportionately shoulder the harmful effects of climate change. Solar Sister believes women are a key part of the solution to the clean energy challenge. This is why we invest in women’s enterprise in off-grid communities. We see the opportunity to empower women and to reach those who aren’t reached by business-as-usual energy models. Centering local women in a rapidly growing clean energy sector is essential to eradicating poverty and achieving sustainable solutions to climate change and a host of development issues."
