SLS Energy

We are thrilled for the recognition of our work to support clean and affordable energy access for vulnerable communities. We've been providing battery-as-a-service to Solid Stair, which delivers clean energy services to humanitarian settings using solar systems. The support from #IGNITEChallenge 3.0 will enable us to scale our solution to more families, businesses, and critical infrastructure in refugee camps.

🔉This is such an insightful podcast for anyone interested in the mini-grid sector. 🚀We are excited at the potential of second-life batteries and the battery-as-a-service model for improving the profitability of mini-grids for developers and the affordability of energy access for off-grid communities. Tombo Banda thank you so much for the shoutout!
