Many rural based small businesses rely heavily on use of kerosene and be forced to close their businesses early hence less turnover and the school going children are not able to measure up with urban based children in terms of study hours available since urban based have electricity for lighting hence ability to study for long hours yet they both seat for the same national exam. Cocatech Enterprises Limited is working towards providing affordable portable solar lighting systems and also easy payment systems.

  4. Planned activities For the year 2014/2015, we are targeting day schools in rural areas where we will work with the schools administrations to assist us in getting the parents who will be able to get home lighting systems at a very minimal price and which will be distributed over a period of time and will be recovered as charging fees for the lamps, for the lamps will need to be brought to the institutions for charging. We will also be helping small business people in rural areas in transiting from use of kerosene and adopting use of green solar energy.
