Solar Panda designs, manufacturers and sells life-changing solar home systems for rural African communities without access to electricity.
Solar Panda believes access to electricity is an investment in people that transforms lives and should be a right for everyone, everywhere. We are on a journey to give every household access to solar energy — to light their home, improve their health, charge their mobile phones and provide a window to the world through radio and TV.

Products are sold in Kenya.
Despite being a late entrant to this market, Solar Panda has succeeded in becoming the fastest growing SHS provider in Kenya through 4 main advantages. First, we have designed our own reliable, high quality products that are superior to alternatives in the market but at a competitive price. Second, we are lean obsessed and avoid costs that don’t add value so that we can invest in our products and our customers. Third, we developed a proprietary ERP system that gives us fast, robust information about our business, saves costs and allows us to grow it to meet business needs. Finally, we have a 100% local workforce in Kenya that is extremely dedicated, skilled and committed to our mission.
All of the members of GOGLA are committed to the same thing – improving lives. Through GOGLA, we can share ideas and concerns, get access to potential partners and stakeholders and elevate the importance of our industry on the world stage.
