Simusolar is a social impact business with strong values, a clear mission and a dedicated team.
Simusolar is focused on creating solar-powered products that have a direct and significant impact on productivity. We identified how to deliver clean-energy powered equipment to off-grid communities, and also how to deliver these products so that they are affordable to smallholder agribusinesses.
Simusolar provides and finances accessible, affordable, and energy-efficient equipment designed for off-grid businesses in Sub-Saharan Africa. Our systems are designed to meet the needs of rural smallholders, from equipment specifications to innovative financing terms. Our goal is to enable rural smallholder farmers and fishers to achieve their vision, affordably and sustainably.
