Description

Headquartered in Nairobi, M-Kopa is one of Africa?s fastest growing, pay-as-you-go solar energy companies. It currently provides off-grid energy to 500,000 low-income households in Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda. East Africa suffers from a poor infrastructure, which makes power inaccessible to many households, as well as unreliable and expensive. M-Kopa is a solar-powered system that gives its predominantly low-income customer base access to lighting, phone charging, radio and TV on daily mobile money payment plans that are less than the typical cost of kerosene.
