“There is no force more powerful than a woman determined to rise.” Botswana Activist Bosa Sebele
2021 certainly proved that to be true. While we all continued to feel the stresses from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on local economies and global supply chains, the Solar Sister Entrepreneurs remained resilient and not only survived but thrived.
We remained steadfastly focused on supporting our network of entrepreneurs to bring clean energy to their remote communities. The consistent support and unwavering commitment to deliver to the hardest-to-reach families ensure that women are given the tools and training they need to earn income for their families and bring clean energy access to their communities.
Our impact at the end of 2021:
- We empowered more than 6,692 Solar Sister Entrepreneurs to build clean energy businesses.
- Reached more than 2.9 million people with clean energy products.
- Mitigated more than 894,848 tonnes of CO2 emissions.
- Brought $215 million in economic benefits to customers.
