About

I am passionate about designing and developing off grid lighting and energy storage systems. My vision is to connect people through Smart City technology and enhance community safety through illumination and providing clean, green energy where mains power isn’t readily available. Whether you are a climate change skeptic or an avid environmentalist, there is general consensus that the world has changed, influenced by human-kind or via natural earth age cycles. Let's embrace solar lighting and solar energy storage as the benefits this technology offers are vast.
