BBOXX designs, manufactures, distributes and finances innovative plug & play solar systems to improve access to energy across Africa and the developing world. More than 150,000 BBOXX products have been sold in more than 35 countries, improving the lives of nearly 1 million people.

Electricity is the entry point to other utilities and value-added services that would never have been possible. Energy provision creates demand in other areas – such as gas, water, internet and finance. Urgency is required to meet the UN’s SDG global targets for 2030. As a leading next generation utility, BBOXX directly contribute to SGD 7 – ensuring access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all. When customers switch from kerosene and other fuels to clean energy, this also brings average annual savings of $200 per household. Off-grid solar is not only cheaper for customers than kerosene and traditional fuel alternatives, but also has the added benefits of being safer, healthier, more reliable and better for the environment. Additionally, the systems are available on a pay-as-you-go basis via mobile money, which is best suited to individuals from low income backgrounds as they only pay for what they use. Bboxx has also worked with governments to launch the roll out of subsidies.
