Ever wondered what it's like at our Abuja office? 🇳🇬 This is the team behind the mission, and how we work and recharge to bring Power to the People. 🔋

Mesh-grids are moving faster than anything else in DARES. ⚡ Across First Electric, Sosai and Renewvia, 13,420 connections are signed and deployment is well underway, bringing reliable power to 60,000+ people. And with a strong pipeline still to come, we're only getting started.

For a barber, reliable power is the whole business. ✂️⚡ Musa ran his shop in Burum, Nigeria on a noisy generator: ₦3,000 a day, cutting out mid-haircut. With Okra, he spends ₦200 a day, his income has doubled, and he's got peace of mind. Power to the People. 🔋

Can impact pay for itself? 🌱 At our latest Field Day in Porto, Lukasz Urbaniak shared lessons from building social businesses in Nepal. Our biggest takeaway? You can't just drop in a product: you have to build the whole ecosystem around it. Exactly why we do Field Days. 💡

Meet Tioluwa John, Deployment Specialist at Okra. ⚡ His job is to bridge the gap between our technology and the communities we serve: training the warehouse teams and installers behind every mesh-grid that brings Power to the People. 🔋

Earlier this month, part of our team spent time in China: a stretch full of firsts. 🇨🇳 Colleagues meeting after 6+ years, and two new manufacturers producing our Leafs and Pods for the very first time. We're back energized, better connected, and ready to build what's next. ⚡

Last week our team visited the Amparo factory in Porto. 🦿 They build an innovative prosthetic socket for amputees, already reaching people in China, the UK, and even Gaza. As fellow hardware builders, seeing another product made end to end was special. Grateful to the team! ⚡

Deep in Kogi State, Nigeria, lies a village called Ojúwó Òbèlè, a village without light, water, or even a road. In partnership with Sosai Renewable Energies, we brought power here for the very first time with mesh-grids, designed around how people here actually live. 💡

What does it mean to experiment your way forward? 🔬 Tiago Gala, our Sr. Hardware Engineer, talks about how a culture of experimentation shapes the way we build. Because the best solutions aren't found by playing it safe. 🎥 Let us know if this one resonates!

What does a day in the life of a Repair Technician look like? Meet Jethro Edward. ⚡ Every device on his bench means a household without electricity, so he races a 48-hour turnaround to get families back to the power they depend on. Power to the People, one repair at a time. 💡

The REA team visited Burum, Nigeria last week for a hands-on look at mesh-grids in action, from productive use to AC lighting in every household. Even the rain couldn't stop the power. ⚡️ Proud to work alongside a team committed to understanding the future of energy access. 🟢

Happy Global Parents Day! 🌟 At Okra, we believe no one should have to choose between family and career, so we built a parental support policy designed for real life. Because supporting our people through every chapter is part of the mission too. 📷🌱

Burning bright doesn't mean burning yourself out. 🔥 Onyinye, our Junior Technical Support, breaks down what that really looks like in practice. Watch the next in our values series and let us know if this one resonates! 🎥

Obe-Nla is a coastal fishing village where traditional grid infrastructure was never an option — waterlogged land, saltwater corrosion, and a community too small for a mini-grid. Mesh-grids changed that. Lorgo, a local fisherman, called it a miracle. 🌊💡 Power to the People. ⚡
