Business models are really one of my passions. Especially when they involved sustainable energy, food etc. So when I came across Indigo a few weeks ago I decided to write a blog post about it. (find it here). I thought their business model was pretty unique until a few days ago when I discovered Simpa Networks.

As you can see in the video above, they use the same business model with a few important twists:

  • First they only deal with bigger systems (the systems do not just provide lighting but could also power other domestic appliances)
  • Second, after a client made enough repayments the system unlocks forever. 

This is a very interesting approach because of scalability and bringing down the initial costs of bigger solar systems in the developing world. 

Conclusion: a company to watch!
