Rural Electrification Programmes
Programme-grade solar lighting for households that a grid extension will not reach this decade, supplied at a price a subsidised programme can carry.
Where It Hurts
- An open tender specifies a product exactly, and a replacement offer is refused however sensible it is.
- Programme budgets fix the unit price before the specification is finalised.
- Products have to pass a recognised quality bar before they qualify.
- A supplier who cannot develop to specification simply cannot bid.
What Buyers Need
- A product that matches the tender document rather than something close to it.
- Third-party quality evidence such as VeraSol or the Lighting Global quality standards.
- Volume the factory can actually deliver on the programme timeline.
- Cost engineering that keeps the specification intact when the price is squeezed.

Typical Application Scenarios
- Household lighting kits distributed across dispersed villages and islands.
- School and study lighting where a desk lamp is the deliverable.
- First-rung lantern distribution before a household moves to a full system.
Delivery Capability
The company supplied 150,000 pieces of solar lamp to Lapuwan Island near Bali for the Indonesian PLN SEHEN requirement, after developing the lamp from scratch when no other factory would. Lantern supply ability is quoted at 100,000 pieces per month.
How a Project Runs
- Requirement review
We read the tender document or programme specification and say plainly what we can and cannot meet.
- Sample and development
Where the product does not exist yet, we develop it. The Indonesian SEHEN lamp went from moulding to a passed laboratory test in eight months.
- Laboratory and certification
Testing arranged against the standard the programme names, whether that is a national laboratory or VeraSol.
- Volume supply
Production scheduled against the delivery window, with container loading confirmed per model.
- After supply
Warranty terms per model and spares specified with the order.
