The Energy Challenge in Haiti


Haiti faces significant obstacles in energy access. According to the World Bank, only about 12% of the population has access to electricity, with rural areas even less served. The national grid is unreliable and often unavailable outside urban centers. Families without electricity depend on expensive and hazardous sources such as:


  • Kerosene lamps that produce harmful fumes

  • Candles that pose fire risks

  • Batteries that are costly and environmentally damaging


These alternatives limit evening activities, reduce study time for children, and increase health risks. Without reliable lighting, parents struggle to work after dark, and children cannot complete homework or read safely.


How ZOLA Solar Kits Meet This Need


ZOLA solar kits provide a clean, safe, and dependable source of electricity tailored for Haitian households. Each kit includes solar panels, batteries, LED lights, and charging ports for phones or small devices. The kits are designed to be easy to install and maintain, even in remote areas.


Key features of ZOLA solar kits include:


  • Reliable energy supply for lighting and phone charging

  • Durable design with a 5-year warranty ensuring long-term use

  • User-friendly setup that does not require technical expertise


By using solar power, families reduce their reliance on harmful fuels and lower their energy expenses over time. The kits enable children to study after dark, parents to extend working hours, and households to stay connected through charged phones.


The Pay-As-You-Go Financing Model


One of the biggest barriers to energy access in Haiti is the upfront cost of solar technology. Many families cannot afford to pay for a solar kit outright. Haitian Green Solutions addresses this by offering a pay-as-you-go (PAYGO) financing system that spreads payments over two years.


How the PAYGO system works:


  • Families make a small initial deposit to receive the solar kit

  • They pay affordable monthly installments over 24 months

  • Payments can be made via mobile money or local agents

  • Once fully paid, the family owns the kit outright


This financing model removes the need for large upfront cash, making solar energy accessible to low-income households. It also builds trust, as families can experience the benefits before completing payments. The 5-year warranty adds confidence in the product’s durability.


Real-Life Impact on Families


The introduction of ZOLA solar kits has transformed daily life for many Haitian families. Here are some examples:


  • Improved education: Children can study after sunset with bright LED lights, improving school performance and future opportunities.

  • Health benefits: Families reduce exposure to toxic fumes from kerosene lamps, lowering respiratory problems.

  • Economic opportunities: Parents can work longer hours or start small businesses that require lighting or phone charging.

  • Safety: Well-lit homes reduce fire hazards and improve security at night.


One mother in a rural village shared how the solar kit allowed her children to read and do homework in the evenings for the first time. Another father started a phone charging service for neighbors, generating extra income.


How ZOLA Solar Kits Support Sustainable Development


Beyond individual households, ZOLA solar kits contribute to broader goals:


  • Environmental protection: Solar energy reduces reliance on fossil fuels and deforestation for charcoal.

  • Community resilience: Reliable energy supports health clinics, schools, and small businesses.

  • Economic growth: Access to electricity enables new income streams and improves productivity.


By combining affordable technology with flexible financing, Haitian Green Solutions helps build a foundation for sustainable development in underserved communities.


What Makes ZOLA Solar Kits Different


Several factors set ZOLA solar kits apart from other energy solutions:


  • Tailored for Haiti’s conditions: Kits are designed to withstand local weather and usage patterns.

  • Long-term warranty: The 5-year warranty ensures families receive value and support.

  • Flexible payment options: The PAYGO system fits the irregular income patterns common in rural Haiti.

  • Local support network: HGS provides customer service and maintenance through local agents.


This combination of product quality, financing, and support creates a reliable energy solution that families can trust.
