Our optional automated data collection facility will help you get to know your customers better so you can offer them what they really need. More efficient business intelligence will shrink your default rate, increase your competitiveness and your profit and improve your credit profile.

MORE POWER FOR LESS MONEYBecause our products are modular, your customers can double the capacity of their PowerBox simply by exchanging the battery and adding a solar panel. As a reseller you can also offer your customers appliances like televisions, tablets, laptops to use with our systems.

GUARANTEED QUALITYSolarWorks! is certified by Lighting Africa – a division of Lighting Global, which promotes improved off-grid access and protects consumers. All SolarWorks! products are designed and developed at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands and come standard with a three-year guarantee.

HIGH IMPACTAccess to solar energy can change people’s lives. Our vision is to provide affordable products to deliver quality technology that can fulfil this potential in a sustainable way.

NETWORKED FULL-SERVICE MAINTENANCEOur PowerBoxes collect data on how much power is consumed, by whom and when. The data will benefit you and your end-user; software in our PowerBoxes will make it possible to change settings remotely so it won’t be necessary to send a technician out. You save on maintenance costs and your customers can get the help they need quickly, with minimum fuss.

PAY AS YOU GO (PAYGO)PAYGO machine-to-machine technology has enabled much faster roll-out of solar power technology to off-grid consumers who could not access it in the past. PAYGO gives resellers and clients more control over their cash flow because transactions are automated using mobile technology.
