      El proyecto

      Ann Wanjiru is a single mother of four children. She lives in a small village called Ndule in Loitoktok, a town in Kajiado County close to Tanzania- Kenya border. She lives with her elderly mother who is undergoing treatment in an neighbouring health facility. Her main source of lighting is a Koroboi lamp [a small kerosene lamp] and has a hand-held torch which she uses as a back-up in case of lack of kerosene to help her nurse her sick mother at night.

      One of the negative effects of Koroboi lamp is the soot produced which has affected the elderly and sick mother especially when inhaled for a long time. Thus Ann has resulted in the use of a torch at night but that has meant buying the dry batteries, a huge cost for her squeezed income.

      The solar home system will come as a great relief both for lighting the house which not only includes looking after her mother and helping the children with their evening studies but also will provide savings on her limited and stretched income.

      Impacto

      BnF focuses on sustainable energy projects in rural Kenya, offering households a 12-month payment plan to purchase a solar home system. The system enables clients to generate sufficient energy to power many basic necessities such as lights, radios, televisions, and other essential appliances. Solar home systems reduce reliance on polluting and health-threatening fuels such as kerosene, firewood, and coal for families' lighting and cooking needs. 

      Electricity opens new economic opportunities for families, enabling household incomes to grow progressively. It provides access to information and entertainment, allowing the children to spend time studying in the evenings and empowering women to engage more in household and local-level decision-making. It stands to reason that entire rural communities' livelihoods benefit from access to clean energy as their productivity, efficiency, and health prospers.
