SolarWorks! was founded in 2008 by industrial designer Bernard Hulshof and econometric Arnoud de Vroomen. The SolarWorks! development centre is based at the incubator of the University of Technology in Delft (The Netherlands). Here products design and R&D is conducted. The distribution of the Solar Home Systems is done in Mozambique, where over 80% of the 29 million inhabitants do not have access to electricity. Mozambique is an untapped market with fast growing mobile money penetration which is an important driver behind the fast growing sales of Pay As You Go sales.

Arnoud de Vroomen is CEO of the company. He worked several years at Unilever and has been the director of Lemnis Solar. SolarWorks! also has a sales office in Johannesburg.

With a loan SolarWorks will be able to provide Solar Home Systems to companies and families in Mozambique.

Påvirkning

SolarWorks! tilbyder prisbillige solcelleanlæg til familier og virksomheder i områder uden elnet i Mozambique, hvor over 80 % af de 29 millioner indbyggere ikke har adgang til energi. Når der kommer elektricitet i et kvarter, har det flere positive virkninger på den lokale økonomi og det lokale samfund. Belysning forlænger butikkernes åbningstider, hvilket resulterer i højere lønninger. Det forbedrer sikkerheden om natten og giver børn mulighed for at studere efter mørkets frembrud for at opnå bedre resultater i skolen.

Elektricitet giver også folk adgang til information via radioer og til kommunikation takket være deres opladede mobiltelefoner. Med et solcelleanlæg undgår man at bruge giftige brændstoffer som petroleum og træ, der er sundhedsskadelige og giver luftvejsproblemer på grund af røgen. I virksomheden er 95 % af de ansatte lokale, og de tilstræber en 50/50 kønsfordeling.
