SolarAid

SolarAid installs solar lights and small systems in rural African schools and clinics while running market-based distribution through its SunnyMoney brand. Unlike SunFarmer’s Nepal-centric, fully subsidized model, SolarAid blends charitable and commercial channels to reach more households. Its published impact metrics focus on kerosene displacement and study hours; it is a strong alternative for funders seeking both donation and market-scale approaches.
