About Sun King

Hey friend! Have Sun King come under your notice? It’s really awesome! Among off-grid solar energy’s most well-known brands is Sun King. Using financial solutions, developing incredible solar products, and conducting field operations serve 1.8 billion people without consistent electricity. They are adding over 200,000 houses every month and have now linked over 20 million houses in Africa and Asia to solar energy.

Even better still is what is Sun King makes solar energy reasonably accessible for companies and low-income homes. They provide a really useful pay-as—you-go choice. Consumers start with a modest deposit and then simply make daily payments—about $0.11—using mobile money or cash.

People can save money by switching to solar instead of diesel or expensive, damaging kerosene lamps for power. One to two years of payments later, they own their solar systems altogether! Thanks to Sun King’s goods, consumers have thus far saved more than $4 billion.

Sun King has a 28,000 field agent network and employs digital payment systems via mobile money. Every day they manage about 650,000 payments! Like pre-paid cellphone or power meters, each solar gadget includes built-in electronics that control use depending on payments.

From basic solar systems for house illumination and phone charging to robust solar inverters capable of running high-energy equipment like laptops and refrigerators, their product line is very remarkable. Sun King’s goods basically can replace conventional grid electricity! To help underprivileged populations, they are also branching out into fields such clean cooking, electric mobility, and entertainment.

Sun King deals with people as much as it does goods. Working in fields including product design, data science, logistics, and customer service—all with an eye towards helping off-grid households—they have 2,800 full-time employees dispersed over 12 nations.

Here’s also something to get happy about: Sun King encourages female diversity in the workplace; 44% of their employees are women!
