Aptech Africa is proud to announce the successful installation of 180 solar-powered street lights in the Union of Comoros, a project that is lighting up communities, improving security, and enhancing social and economic activity in the islands.
Access to reliable public lighting has long been a challenge in many parts of Comoros. Poorly lit streets not only limit evening economic activities but also pose safety risks for residents. The installation of 180 solar street lights by Aptech Africa marks creates safer, brighter, and more vibrant public spaces.
The new street lights are strategically positioned across key community areas, including roads, marketplaces, and residential neighborhoods. These lights provide a sustainable solution that ensures continuous power supply without the burden of high electricity costs or the unreliability of grid power.
The installation of solar street lights goes far beyond power supply. It brings tangible improvements to the daily lives of residents: enhanced Security reducing risks of accidents and discourage crimes, businesses can remain open longer, and local markets are now more active in the evenings. Public gatherings, community events, and social activities can take place safely after dark. Powered by clean solar energy, the street lights contribute to Comoros’ commitment to sustainability and climate resilience.
This project reflects strong collaboration between Aptech Africa, local authorities, and development partners. Together, we are demonstrating how renewable energy solutions can directly impact communities by improving quality of life and enabling social and economic development.
At Aptech Africa, we remain committed to delivering innovative renewable energy solutions across Africa. From solar-powered water systems to electrification of schools, hospitals, and public infrastructure, our work is focused on empowering communities with reliable, sustainable, and affordable energy.
The successful completion of this project in Comoros is a testament to how solar energy can transform lives one light at a time.
