Rural communities get light up with free solar power kits


Bluetti, a global leader in renewable energy solutions has donated 50 solar power kits to impoverished rural families in Ilaro, Ogun State, through its Lighting an Africa Family (LAAF) project to further address the energy deficiency in Africa. This strategic donation seeks to address power challenges faced by rural dwellers and improve access to clean and reliable energy.


The donation witnessed the distribution of Bluetti solar power kits to residents selected based on commitment to community development and need for a reliable source of power.

Each donated solar power kit includes a battery pack, solar panel, and LED bulbs to keep each household powered during electricity outages. In addition to the solar kits, Bluetti also provided t-shirts to every family and notebooks and pens to children present during the event.

While demonstrating hands-on training to the audience on the optimal use of solar power kits, the Country Manager of Bluetti, Jefferey Zhang expressed genuine concern for the community.

In his words “Bluetti is firmly committed to philanthropy through the LAAF project to foster improved life for African rural dwellers, particularly those who have had long issues of power supply..

The Otun-Iyaloja of Ilaro Markets, Mrs. Christianah Oduoye who contacted Bluetti to seek the germane intervention stated that Ilaro community has long grappled with power scarcity but the donation will improve the residents’ lives. “We are profoundly grateful for Bluetti’s generous support.”

Nigeria and several other African countries continue to grapple with power shortages, leading to frequent unreliable access to electricity. The LAAF project is a beacon of hope, illuminating lives and symbolising a step towards sustainable development by bringing electricity to African households.
