We are transforming lives with solar lights to help both people and the planet.

Story

SolarAid’s vision is of a world where everyone has access to clean, renewable, energy. 548 million people in sub-Saharan Africa lack access to electricity. This forces people across the continent to cut their day short at around 6pm, with many relying on expensive, toxic and dangerous lighting sources such as candles and kerosene lamps.Our mission is to light up every home, school and clinic in Africa by 2030, using safe, clean, solar power. No one should be left in the dark.Together, we can End the Darkness.
