I've joined @OpenEnergyLabs as Design Lead to work on universal access to electricity through education. @OpenEnergyLabs wants every young person in Africa to learn how to build & maintain renewable energy power supplies. If you work in #energyaccess or #edtech, get in touch 🙂

13 year-old Kezia won first prize at the National JETS fair in Zambia with her Vanadium battery using the Le1. Amazing to be working with such talented young women and men.

Congratulations to Solar Sister entrepreneur Jesca Odiro for achieving her dream of constructing a home! Before Solar Sister, she was having to pay rent and now she is rent-free. She uses solar to light her home and charge her phone. Go Jesca! #womendriven #energyaccess

The @localelec project is so close to their crowdfunding target -- they're working to set up a space in Zambia to teach young people how to build electricity supplies! Help getting them over the line would be appreciated, if you'd like to support this! #techforgood

Very excited to be launching our crowdfunding campaign today! Over the course of nine months we will be running workshops with students from across Zambia teaching them everything they need to know to build a modern electricity supply. startsomegood.com/localelectrici…

Lack of access to electricity is a problem faced by 620 million people in sub-Saharan Africa. This amazing DIY electricity project in Zambia is trying to do something about that - teaching students how to build electricity supplies using local resources startsomegood.com/localelectrici…

Such a privilege to be working with @GranvilleWood in Zambia. At 15 he built a robot rover from spare parts he collected from local markets. Super lucky to have him as part of the team. Find out more about how he became involved with the work we do here: bit.ly/31WftGs
