A solar lamp that can be used every day in places without electricity.
To give people access to modern energy, reliable, affordable, and sustainable solutions that meet their needs must be put in place. To do this, TotalEnergies has made a line of solar lamps called Sunshine. To light up the whole house, there are different solar home systems that can be bought with cash or on a pay-as-you-go plan, depending on how much money the customer has. They raise people’s living standards and quality of life by letting them work after dark, giving them light to study at home, and making it easier to get information and talk to other people (radio, TV, mobile phone charging). With low prices, this range is a safer and cleaner alternative to traditional energy sources like kerosene lamps and candles, which are less reliable and pollute the environment. It also helps small businesses make more money. Customers can buy our solar lamps from more than 15,000 service stations around the world that are already part of our distribution network.
