Summary:

The availability of solar-powered water pumps and solar lamps have had a life-changing effect on rural communities in Kenya, providing clean drinking water and lighting while eliminating hardships, health hazards and habits that contribute to climate change. The government's commitment to invest in clean energy has been bolstered by private companies to bring about real change, especially for those who need it most.
