Solar Classroom in a Box
Solar technology combined with low power computers provides a kit for classroo that fits in a truck.
Aleutia takes the guesswork out of solar. By providing best-in-class panels, charge controllers, batteries and all cabling, field tested in rural Africa over the years, this integrated solar system is optimised for Aleutia’s computers and enables rapid, reliable deployment. Deployed at over 180 rural schools in 10 developing countries, Aleutia provides everything needed to quickly setup a ICT classroom in off-grid areas. By providing all the components in a kit, the Solar Classroom in a Box can be installed in a day by a local handyman rather than an expensive specialist. The panels simply need to be secured and a hole put through the roof to connect to the batteries. This solar system solution is so flexible that site surveys are not needed in advance.
