Kingo Energy
Kingo turns lives ON! It offers a prepaid solar energy service in communities without electricity.
Imagine YOUR world without electricity... This is the reality for 20% of the world’s population, who live in extreme poverty, and with high levels of illiteracy, disease, and low human development. Kingo’s mission is to turn lives ON! Kingo provides a prepaid solar energy service in rural communities without access to a reliable electricity grid at a lower cost than candles and kerosene. Kingo’s solar energy kits can power light bulbs, cell phones, and other household appliances; and customers can purchase energy codes by day, week, month, or as their budget permits. Through its unique GSM-free technology, Kingo is already transforming more than 90,000 lives in Guatemala and South Africa. 92% of Kingo's customers report saving money, 86% report increased productivity, and children who live in households that have Kingo study more than twice as much!
