The Challenge in Africa
An open fire is highly energy inefficient and requires a lot of wood. Family of 5 consumes 4000 kg of wood a year producing 6400 kg of CO₂.
840 million people in sub-Saharan Africa do not have access to electricity .
Solution
Afstor Solar Home system with induction cooker produces clean energy for cooking, lighting and appliances with 100% solar power and zero CO₂ emissions. It enables an African family to leap to the 21st century in energy use.
During use for five years, one Afstor Solar Home System reduces CO₂ emissions equal to 260,000 km driven by car. You may track usage hours of the system you have purchased and resulting CO₂ compensation on a CO₂ tracking website.
By Purchasing Afstor Solar Home system with induction cooker, you can offset damage on the climate caused at home by reducing an equivalent amount of CO₂ in Africa – cost effectively, easily and with full transparency.
Green Living Moment project linked to Afstor Solar Home systems in Zambia also regreens the degraded areas around the communities through education, tree nurseries and tree growing.
