Sustainable Energy For All 246d ago

☀️ In Madagascar, Masontsika is redefining community healthcare and energy access through its innovative Powerhub model. 💡 Masontsika's signature business model - its Powerhub or Bazary - powers households and small businesses with solar energy, offering nearby residents affordable services like lamp rentals, phone charging, and cold storage. ⚡🏥 With support from SEforALL's Powering Healthcare Innovation Fund, Masontsika has now adapted this model to electrify 12 rural health centers, bringing reliable power for lighting, vaccine refrigeration, and 24-hour healthcare, while continuing to bring energy to surrounding communities with lamp rentals and cold storage for food. 💲 The revenue generated from the community energy services helps maintain the solar systems and sustain electricity supply to the health centres. Through this innovative business model, the health centres receive electricity for free.
