Niwa develops, manufactures and distributes the next generation of ultra-affordable sustainable energy solutions for people living without electricity. They do this by utilizing latest state-of-art technology like highly energy efficient LED modules, environmentally friendly batteries with the longest lifetime in the market and durable long lasting solar panels. Furthermore their product design is fully optimized for the rural consumer - usability, practicability, toughness, reliability and long time durability - all features we put special emphasis on.
The company’s philosophy 'solar products with social impact' best describes what they are doing: they deliver products which can make a small difference in the communities of Africa and South Asia, let people save their burnable fuel money and invest it into the education of their kids or the growth of their small businesses.
All their products are developed based on first-hand consumer studies did in African and Indian communities. They strongly believe that only the individuals living in rural environments should have the final say about what products they design for them. Not only do the products fit perfectly into their daily lives, they also do not carry unnecessary ballast which brings up the retail price and therefore represent the optimum in terms of value proposition to the consumer.
Their solar products are simple tools for cost saving and economic growth of families having to deal with unreliable electricity. In average it just needs 4 months for returning the initial investment and after that day-by-day the money for burnable fuels like kerosene or disposable batteries is saved and stays in the pockets of families.
