VIDEO | Schneider Electric Uses Solar Power to Illuminate Primary Schools for 45K Students in Africa

There are elements of a successful, sustainable approach to rural electrification projects, with examples of innovative business models and a case study of Schneider Electric’s Access to Energy program.
